Default Smallish diesel van.

Thinking about getting a small diesel van for going back and forward to work but mainly for being able to stick a couple of mountain bikes in the back of. Looking for something with decent mpg and reliability. Budget about 6k, any recommendations? Something like this possibly?

Odd, it still dosen't work for me Paul. Anyway I had a Vito the whole of last year and loved it, apart from fuel I never had to spend a penny on it and it sailed through it's MOT before I sold it.

It's maybe a bit big for your needs but would quite happily hold a couple of bikes all your **** and you could even sleep in it those weekends when your away in the middle of no where.

I'll be looking to get another at some point.

Edit, just tried it in another browser and it works fine..

The Non turbo Caddy will be slow, If its a caddy you want then get the TDi one
Citroen berlingo / Peugeot partner are a good van if that's the sort of size your after

Had a couple of Caddies for work, excellent vans 1.6TDi 102 BHP went very well and could return 50mpg sensibly driven. Apparently they respond well to a remap too
