Most Reliable Vans

In a survey carried out last year to find the most reliable van, the Ford Transit came at the top of the list. It is no surprise that the Transit came out on top as it has been one of the most popular vans for quite some time. The Transit is used is many different trades and has been since it was first produced back in the 1960’s. There have been many different versions since then, but the Transit still remains the most popular van of choice.

Coming in at second place is another victory for Ford with the Ford Transit Connect, which is Ford’s smaller van.

Voted the third most reliable van is the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Volkswagen took forth and fifth place with the Transporter and the Caddy. The vans were chosen for reliability based on breakdown and warranty claims.

The managing director for Ford has said, “Ford is extremely proud that the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Connect have taken the top two spots in this reliability survey which is based on hard facts.

“This is a tribute to the passion and dedication of our designers and engineers at Dunton who make quality the highest priority, and which has kept Ford at the top of the UK Commercial Vehicle market for over 46 years.”
