This afternoon we are going to look at a Hiace Regius, 1999, 3.0td,..... I know Tigermouse loves her Granvia (similar thing)..... I just wondered if anyone else has one of these and what they are like to tow with?

Glad you've managed to get sorted gaz.

On the subject of Granvia insurance - not that it applies now but thought it might be worth mentioning - it would be worth trying Lifesure, they specialise in Jap imports and for my OH it was way cheaper with them than anyone else for a really good policy.

OOh thanks for that Feeblecat,
Well, we we're going to look at a bongo but we found on the internet at a more local to us garage a Hyundai Trajet Diesel,auto. We have been to look at and it suits our needs, so have decided to go for that.
Purely and simply, because thats what we had before the sharan and was a brilliant car,
I had some ridiculous insurance quotes for the Granvia and Bongo's and our insurance company wanted £1600 extra if we we're to stay with them.,

The Hyundai we have purchased comes with low mileage, a warranty and 6 months tax and 12 months MOT so lets hope its as reliable as our last Hyundai,
That wasn't what we originally set out to look for but we are both pleased, and it should be a bit better on fuel then the Granvia,

I do hope one day that we will get a Granvia/Regius or a Bongo, but for now we have put our sensible heads on and gone for a more main stream car.
Sensible Silver :(   (would have preferred a red one!)

Thanks again for the responses, we certainly won't be purchasing a VW ever again! I won't be sad to see it go.
