Hey everyone, I just nabbed a loaded pre-registered Vivaro E 75kwh LWB for 20k inc vat - maybe Vauxhall have told their dealers to shift these before the fines start - the van seems to have been sitting for 10 months since built. They are supposed to be £52k
Drove it back 150 miles and the range on the motorway at 64mph was 170miles so it'll easily be 200+ around town. I know a lot of people are waiting until December to try to get insane deals, but maybe it's better to strike now... I highly recommend you try to get one with the heated seat pack - it's really good. As you can see, it's a little too long for normal parking spaces!
Speaking of those heated seats - this van has a bizarre spec... dealer listed it as a base model (V5 confirms), but it's absolutely loaded with options, some of which are not even listed as options for the van model, only the people carrier...
No idea what the story is with it, parts shortage maybe?
Anyhow, I got this by setting up a search on autotrader for vans up to 1 year old with under 500 miles on them. Ignore model of van and look at photos to establish spec - if you see heated seats it's going to be loaded no matter what they say. Also look at the buttons around the touch screen - if you see the satnav button is there (all 6 buttons will have an icon on them) then you'll also have the pro-nav which is actually excellent as it is also on the driver screen behind the wheel and adds tons of features like auto cruise speed adjust, sign recognition, speed camera warning etc.
If the back is ply lined it means it has the expensive ply option which also has load hooks along the floor.
Ignore buttons on the steering wheel - some vans have them all on a stalk behind the wheel instead.
Look at the cruise control stalk - if it has a 'mem' button that's an extra option which allows you to control the cruise from the touch screen, set and save speeds etc. useful for motorway, just save 60mph as an icon, and you can just touch it and the van will take over.
Ignore the reverse camera option, it's rubbish, a £100 front/rear mirror dash cam from ebay is better - plus records all the time - actually caught an incident on my first journey with it and police involved etc. (I/van was fine) Van comes with parking sensors as standard anyway.
Auto folding heated mirrors are very nice too. Yet to establish if it also might have the 11kw charger option, as I don't have a build sheet (or 3 phase).
Does anyone know how I might be able to get the build sheet? So happy with this bargain.
