I've been using the Iveco Daily for my delivery work lately. It's durable for heavy loads, which really helps when I have large shipments. The high loading height does take a bit more effort, but it's not a deal breaker. I've noticed the engine can feel somewhat loud, especially compared to other vans I've used. Overall, a sturdy choice for heavy-duty tasks.

Been running my Sprinter for six years mostly hauling parcels around the city, sometimes even using it as a people-mover for a dozen folks when needed. It's been a workhorse and feels really solid, like, the cabin doesn't rattle and seats are actually supportive on long stints, not always the case with other vans I've tried. Got to say, the noise insulation's decent-road noise isn't bothering you the whole shift. I also appreciate those driver assist features, though I always double-check, especially with the lane-keeping. Not everything's perfect though. Price hits your wallet hard, and maintenance isn’t cheap either, especially at the dealership. But reliability, yeah, that's what keeps me coming back to Sprinter, rarely lets me down and always starts up even after cold weekends. Only thing, if you drove smaller vans before, Sprinter's bulk takes a minute to get used to, don't expect to whip it around like a hatchback.

I'm a van driver who has had a Daily as a fleet backup. Pick carefully - there are so many lengths and heights, and payloads change a lot depending on the spec. The biggest loading bay is massive (almost 20m3) but heavier versions need different licences. Cab is basic, no overhead storage unless you pay extra, and the dash looks dated. Iveco's option packs make life easier than the old single long list, but you still end up ticking extras to get what other vans include. Dealer network is smaller than VW/Mercedes; parts and servicing are solid though, they know trucks and the 2.3 motor has a decent track record. I like the long service intervals and the 5yr cover, that matters when you run a rig every day. Not plush inside, but practical. If you want a simple, tough working van and don't care about creature comforts this will do the job.

I recently tried out the Renault Master, and overall, it feels well-crafted. The cabin space is indeed comfortable, with everything arranged conveniently for daily use. However, I did find the suspension a bit firm when the vehicle was unloaded. Driving it around city streets was easy due to its excellent turning radius.

I’ve been running a third gen Renault Master 2.5 dci for work the last few years. The cab is honestly real comfy for long drives, seats got enough adjustments and there’s a ton of spots to throw your stuff around. That extra storage is just super helpful when you’re on the road all day. The visibility out of the thing is good-windows and mirrors all in the right spots, lighting is decent. Motor starts up even when it’s crazy cold out, which, yeah, matters when you’ve gotta be somewhere before sunrise. It sips fuel less than I expected for something this size, saves me a bit.

Stuff I don’t love: The noise gets to you when you’re doing highway for hours, the insulation just isn’t great. And the rear door hinges, gotta keep an eye on them since they don’t seem to last long. Still, not dealbreakers for me, just good to know what you’re getting into.

Just took the Renault Master for a week-long courier job. The cabin's layout is practical and the visibility is excellent due to the large windscreen. Despite the well-cushioned seats, I felt the middle passenger's space was a bit cramped when I shared the van with my assistant on one of the days. Driving around narrow urban streets was smooth thanks to its tight turning radius. However, acceleration felt a bit sluggish on steep inclines, even with the mid-range 148bhp engine.

Had some experience with the updated Renault Master. The engine performance is commendable, offering enough power when needed. The visibility is surprisingly good thanks to large windows. Nonetheless, I wish the instrument panel design felt less dated.

The new electric steering makes a real difference in town. It is light when parking but does not feel vague, and the front/rear sensors help with a van this long. On the test, it rode well and stayed settled even though it was empty. You also get Normal, Slippery and Eco modes, plus lane keeping and pre-collision kit depending on spec. My only small gripe: alloys on a working Transit seem a bit pointless. Kerbs will find them soon enough.

I’ve driven passenger vans for years, and the Transit 350 XLT makes sense only when you really need all those seats. The driving position is high, with loads of headroom and useful dash storage, so the front feels fine on a long day. But rear visibility is poor, and it gets worse when the van is full. The backup camera helps, still I’d want more camera coverage on something this big. The screen and USB-C port are welcome, nothing fancy though.

Been running a fleet with a couple of these new Iveco Dailys (2024), so I spend a lot of time behind the wheel. The thing is super strong - you really feel it’s got a proper truck chassis, but that also means when you’re driving the 3.5t version, the payload isn’t as good as, say, a Crafter or Sprinter. If you always need to carry heavy stuff, not a deal breaker, but it’s something. Comfort is alright, especially if you get the memory foam seats - makes a difference on long journeys. Steering’s nice and light. I wish the interior felt a bit more upmarket but at least the controls are straightforward and there’s loads of cubbies. Fuel economy though, not the best. When fully loaded, you’ll be lucky to crack 27mpg. The long service intervals and that five-year warranty do help make up for it a bit.
