Looking for another Van T5 or T6

[DaPa]

As per title.

Has to be in Automatic flavour.

Previously had a T4 Auto, from purchase had to put £1,800 to have it fixed.

I would prefer to have an auto with the least amount of issues.

Any suggestions on engine, Auto box configuration?

It'll all depend on your budget, if you've got a lot to spend you can have it all, 204Hp, DSG, LED headlights, the list goes on. If you're restricted on your spend you might have to compromise in some areas.

There's unlikely to be consensus on this, but 150ps DGS is widely considered to hit the power/fuel-economy sweet spot.

It has to be Auto, and are the Auto boxes in the Transporter reliable?

Not too bothered about the additional toys, as long as it's comfortable to drive and reliable.

Would that be 'DSG'? @Bav

 

[Bav]

The 7-speed DSG 'box is reliable and, yes, it's an auto box (though it's a dual clutch system, not the traditional torque convertor system).

I have been looking at a 2.5 T30 SWB TDI 130 BHP, Auto with 75,000 miles.

What are the views on this setup?
