i bought a 55 reg vivaro van off my work as it broke down when i was working in wales the 1st time they got it fixed it had a new turbo and air flow meter then again in wales it broke down they took it to the garage and they said it was a ecu failure as they had just spent about £800 on it they didnt want to get it fixed so i bought it off them for £1000 got my mate to do diagnostics on it. egr valve come up so did that and it was the same it would start but not tick over or rev so did it again and it was reading the air temp as 19c and it was -4c out side so got a gm airflow meter and that work the van is now running in total its cost me about £1200.now some one has offered me a evo 4 for it do i keep the van sell it or swap it for the evo

Just had a look around and tbh the EVO 4's at that price are showing there age. If its boring you sell it and get something thats not going to be a money pit.

tbh mate vivaro's are loosing money rapidly i struggled to sell my trafic which is the same van ok a year older than yours but only got 2500 for it.

get rid whilst you can as the new reg's are crippling the older van market

Evos normally cost more than that, even a 4 so personally I'd view it and see what you think but be prepared a dog

Swap for the Evo. Then swap the evo for something a little more Keep Swapping What you Get but keep swapping up Before you know it you will be swapping an Enzo for a veyron or vice versa. laughing
