Phil, I have had a Multivan TDi 4motion for 6 months now. Absolutely love it, wouldnt swap for anything else.

I get about 10l/100 and we live in a hilly area. Short trips to/from school really use lots of fuel.

When we go camping I just take the captains chairs out and slide the bench seat forward. The 3 young kids still have loads of space and there is more than enough room for all our camping gear. Over easter we took it onto the beach for the first time. You get some strange looks driving down the beach in it. It handled it everything with no dramas.
