The time has finally arrived and a bigger car is required! I'm undecided between Fiat Ulysse, Peugeot 807 and Citroën C8. Main things I need to consider are maximum towing weight, reliability, fuel economy and routine maintenance costs. Does anybody have experience of any of these cars? What's your preferences please......

-------------
Easter - Hamsterley Forest - 4 days
June - wigwams in Northumberland - 2 nights
July - Gt Yarmouth - 10 days

Hopefully lots more too!

Those 3 cars are the same, only the badges are different. A few yrs ago these cars had an issue with premature cambelt failure due to rainwater leaking into bonnet. Ensure any you consider have had factory modification done and new cambelt fitted. If car does not have main dealer service history I would leave alone.

The cambelt issue affected cars made up to 2006 so 2007, onwards will be ok but obviously ensure full service history with any you consider.
