    Probably be the connect, doblo, vivaro in that order.

    As with anything, condition and past are important.

    The connect would probably be the best in terms of reliability as they are hard wearing but they are also a bit of a dog in that they are loud wouldn't be that nice to drive and would be the hardest on diesel out of the 3 by a bit. The 2004 onwards Caddy would be nicer than all 3 of them choices but you mightened get one in you budget.

    I wouldn't go with the Vivaro, a lot of them have gearbox problems. I had on from new in 05, gearbox went last year. Costly to repair.
