Lookin at either of these. 2010-2012 models Hearing different things anecdotally, mercedes reliable but parts expensive. Primastar lots of cheaper parts available but more prone to breakdown. Is this true? Light work. not too much mileage.

Hyundai H1 should be seriously considered. Lovely van to drive - RWD, 170bhp as standard, good interior.
Similar size to those two and very reliable too.
I wouldn't touch a primastar or vito tbh. Friend has an 05 vito and its rotten with rust.
