    I enjoyed watching the Video Review. The New Model looks even better now

    Great video Tom! I reviewed the passenger version of the Caddy in my channel, and I must say I was very impressed with the new design and style. It looked very special!
    The interior was amazing in style!
    However for its price I did find it under equipped and there was nothing for the rear seat passengers. I couldn't even open the rear passenger window because there wasn't any ability to.
    But okay, I must say the style was promising

    Compared to my 2014 caddy Highline the cabin looks very plastic but the wide side doors look and great improvement.

    Hi Tom you forgot to mention the armrests and another pocket on the right of the steering wheel lower down..
    It's a lovely van to drive big improvement but vw need to improve reliability big time. New clutch after just 70km is not on

  • @davidhayes4814

    Payload is an odd one and of course an option should be offered which can carry more. Truth be told in this overly packaged world, volume matters more, especially if you are a courier. You could cram three tonnes of heavy c*** in that space and stuff the suspension but that is not how these are used. My van is always full up, as a courier, and rarely has more than 250 Kg in it.

      Many of us will use these in construction and be carrying cement or screed and easily overload it.

    Good to see the caddy still had rock hard suspension, compared to the Connect.

      Different strokes, I’d rather have firm suspension and corner better. If I wanted to drive slowly I’d stick with my transit.

    Does anyone know of the horrendous injector problem from the 1.6 MK3 Caddy era was solved by the time the MK4 Caddy was introduced? 
If yes I presume the injectors on the MK5 Caddy Commerce must be at last fit for purpose?

  • @niceguy235uk1
    @niceguy235uk1 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had one of these on an extended test drive over the weekend and I have never driven a van that is so uncomfortable and harsh with the ride. It’s almost like the rear end has no shock absorbing at all. They have ruined the rise in these to the point I may look elsewhere. I did notice it had some crappy Giti Tyres on it so let a few psi out to see if that made a difference which it did a bit but still nowhere near as comfortable as previous gens.

      It's half golf, half transit connect. Subframe, steering rack, gearbox, front struts all vw I am led to believe. I still want to see how it suits once were out of lockdown and I can take one for a drive.

    This van is ugly, dreading the new connect. Hopefully Ford can sport it up a bit like the current 2020/21 connect sport. For the sale of miss understanding me - yes I know Ford and VW did a joint van. I’m hoping the Ford grille and bumper transform the van.

    My VW Caddy had 12 injectors changed and it has only done 57,000 miles. Never again a VW for me. There is no mention of this in the review even though it is common knowledge in the trade. It is this connection with the vow that prevents me to purchase the Ford. Why do the reviews never give honest views? Perhaps because it is sponsored by the manufacturers and those doing the reviews have sold their souls kissing the backside of those paying them to do the review.

    Cabin look smaller than my 2014 highline and looks more cheaper as well . You don't need to place for paper in 2022 . The head storage allows me to have a tyre pump ,rachets as well the spanner for the wheels plus a first aid box and a dogbowl. And still no where to put your phone. Plus media plsyer look lacking . Shouldnt have to replaced a media player on a new vehicle but clearly you do. Front look ugly as well. Id rather have 2019 last true caddy then this ugly ford
