I would agree do not rush into buying a van that is imo sound advice from Chris, there are pleanty of vans around and you need to make the right choice.

Act in haste, repent at leisure. Don't rush into this-the second biggest purchase after your house for most people.
We rushed, and although we got a good van, it was more through luck than judgement, and I have had to do a heck of a lot to it to bring it up to scratch.
Good luck in whatever you decide.
Thanks guys, sound advice there. We have been looking for months but are now in Germany. We need to buy in a hurry as the documents will not be with us in time for us to go home if we don't decide.
hi Has above dont rush i bought my 1st at don amotts derby, like that it did its job but was the wrong layout I needed a bigger one.. so take your time
Thanks ksebruce. that has us a bit concerned now. Anyone else have a 2litre engine? I was talking to my mechanic friend who said there may be an opportunity to chip it and up the power.
are you sure is 120 bhp, I Dont think Ford did that output. It will probally be a 125 0r a 115 bhp. Either of which should give plenty of power. The old Fiat 2.8 was not much more.
Our van is a 2.2 130 bhp and thet certainly goes well enough. The 2.0tdci is normally held in high regard in van circules as long as its one of the higher output versions. If power is you only concern I think it will be ok. But as other have said make sure everythink is else ik right.
The last van we had was 2.3 fiat and was fine but we now have 3litre Renault which is fantastic.. Personally (and as a woman too) I would go for more power than a 2 litre on an 05 plate
