Vauxhall Combo Review Change...
Vauxhall Combo Introduction
Designed from the ground up as a light van rather than being car-derived the Vauxhall Combo is a very capable performer. Maximising payload capacity and load volumes the Combo also maximises passenger room with the Crew Cab version, adding to its versatility and practicality.
Vauxhall Combo Performance
Performance for the Vauxhall Combo was, in the past, steady at best. The new range of Combo vans have changed all that though, with the new petrol and diesel engines on offer providing this light Vauxhall van with plenty of zip and pulling power.
Vauxhall Combo Driving
In comparison with car based light vans the Combo does not have the same levels of handling, though this is no surprise. The Combo is a more practical vehicle overall, designed to deal with extra weight rather than going round corners quickly.
Vauxhall Combo Equipment
The interior of the Combo is a practical but comfortable environment, with good seats, stereo radio or CD/radio and remote central locking. There are a number of items on the options list too, including air conditioning and heated seats.
Vauxhall Combo Practicality
With a good sized load space of around 3 cubic metres and wide door openings the Combo easily deals with a variety of jobs. The low loading height is also a benefit and the flat floor, with optional mounting points, makes it very easy to maximise the space. The Combo Crew van builds on the great practicality offered with room for three more passengers, perfect for a small team.
Vauxhall Combo Quality
The fact that the Combo van was designed as just that, a van, means it is a strong and reliable vehicle, easily able to manage heavy loads and long hours day after day. It is a van that is often seen with very high mileages on the clock, testament to the build quality and reliability of this particular Vauxhall commercial vehicle.
Vauxhall Combo Safety
Vauxhall have equipped the Combo with a whole host of safety features, from ABS, with EBD and EBA, drivers airbag and side impact protection beams through to seatbelt pre-tensioners and placing the fuel tank within the vans wheelbase and so ahead of the rear axle.
Vauxhall Combo Running costs
With recorded fuel consumption figures of around 54mpg, 20,000 mile service intervals and low cost replacement parts the Vauxhall Combo van has excellent running costs. The diesel engines have also proved themselves to be strong and reliable, meaning less time off the road for busy van drivers and owners.
