The Sprinter will give better fuel consumption than a Solo, but like the previously used Bluebird and Sprinters used five years ago will be cramped and disliked by passengers.
I can just say rememer when little Bedfords used to run up and down the dale and later on the K reg Metrorider and i guess they willl have used one of the Bristol LHs.
