As title says really what vans are we all driving??
What is / has been your most reliable van?
Preferably that you can fit 1800 x 900 sheets of plasterboard in to
 
For The last 7 years I've had transits, (company supplied) 3 of them. All had their issues too. My current transit custom had to have a new steering collum when it was less than 3 years old. And they're easier to break into than a wheelie bin, can't say I'd recommend them.
 
Kangoo, too small. 52 plate vivaro, 5 years old when I had it, dreadfull reliability cost me a small fortune and so on that I bought a brand new one in 2013 before the face lift version. Bloody brilliant. The main reason I bought another was because I'd got a decent roof rack and pipe rack that went straight off the old one onto the new one.
 
Ducato L2H2 tecnico.
No more bumping head getting in & out.
Nice driving position and nice lazy engine.
Also carries loads of bits & can get everything in.
Touch wood she will be nice & reliable bar normal wear & tear items.
