  oh... is it true ?! if all the vans that i have listed has overheating problem, which is the one least likely to have overheating problem ?!
  
  there's quite a number of Fiat Doblo on the roads and i find it quite okay... any feedback on this ?!

  okay...I think I'd better be serious here...from many of my friends opnion....the toyota vans are VERY reliable....the L300 van after some time will emit alot of black smoke.....but then again....NOTHING BEATS THE TRANSIT!!!!
  oh remember u have 2 think of parts also...my friend owns both the toyota hiace and the opel vivaro...and he told me that the conti vans the parts are not cheap and EZ 2 find compared to jap ones...this one u also have 2 consider when u buy any veh
