Best Business Commercial for a company car driver?

    I am thinking of switching to a commercial to avoid the bulk of the BIK. My question are which commercials are the most refined.

    For example if travelling long distance I would not want one that is really noisy and no cruise control.

    I here the new Ford Kuga commercial is directly targeted at company car drivers but for almost the same money you could get a Mercedes ML :eek:

    Recently Citroen had the C-Crosser down to €18k which seemed like a real steal but sadly the deal is no longer.

    Has anybody got any of these type of vehicles and if so do you rate yours?

    Thanks in advance :)

    The Peugoet 4007 is on offer @ 18k at the minute AFAIK, if you like the C-Crosser.

    Take a look at a Passat Estate Commercial (there are a few around) too.

    Mitsubishi are pushing the Outlander Business at the moment (same as C-Crosser / 4007). I had one for a weekend and it's a vast improvement over the Pajero Sport, but still compromised as a car and an off roader. Retail on the Intense spec is €32,082 (BIK Value), but the cost is a hell of a lot lower than that - head in to your local Mitsubishi dealer for an exact cost (or PM me). Ex. VAT it's not far off the C-Crosser price above.

    The Passat Estate Commercial is good value too. Think it's only Belgard Commercials advertising them, but I got a stock vehicle converted to commercial for a customer. I think there might still be a couple of Bluemotion Comfortlines in stock and therefore eligable for the extra discount.
