    I own one and I really like it, and I don't work for the post office :D

    Then again, my car is an Austin Allegro and although I keep being told I shouldn't like it, I still can't help myself and do....

    Oh dear, never mind. :rotfl:
    I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:

    well TBH having driven many of their vans im not surprised they are in trouble.
    infact i would guess RM are the only thing keeping the company in business
    their vans are pretty poor,and im talking from having driven them from brand new.
    get a new LDV and a new transit and just see how the compare.the transits miles ahead in all aspects

    EDIT: however theres a lot of jobs on the line here

    The only way such outdated products could have competed was on price. LDV should have shipped the production line to North Africa or Estonia and have the locals on $1/day assemble the vans.
