Testers’ notes

MATT SAUNDERS The VW has that empty cereal box feel when bumps hit the loaded side of the axles, and the body reverberates. At speed, it makes you know a little better what it’s like to be a Weetabix.

ILLYA VERPRAET Body control and performance aren’t brilliant but are good enough in something intended for carting around a tonne of ballast, or packing for an activity-filled family holiday with a kayak on the roof. When fully loaded, vans aren’t for driving fast anyway.
