Some are :y

Not a proper v6... crappy VW straight six with two heads. Shit build quality, heater/coolant issues require dash out to fix, which is basically a factory job, horrific fuel economy, VW parts prices with a Ford badge (not a good look)...

Did I miss anything? ::)

A mate has one, which now has failed aircon, no heater, and a friendly garage that will only change the oil and MoT it as anything else basically takes days to do and isn't financially viable even at friendly garage rates.

Seriously though, if you need a bigger vehicle for comfort/access reasons, then you could do alot worse than a swb low roof Transit... ;)
