This not Ford Transit, Vauxhall Vivaro is quickly becoming a thing, two Dev's at work chatting about it while making a brew this morning.

I can see this printed on mugs and T-shirts on PH Store

If they print it on mugs and T-shirts let's hope they spell "definitely" correctly.

I copied and pasted it directly from the OPs original post, just so you all know.

This thread has been very amusing. Perhaps the time to end it has arisen as it’s the original question isn’t really a question.

All the best to the op and hope he has a happy parking future.

If it’s uncomfortable and gutless it’s a Vivaro. If it feels like it has been assembled by people over the age of 6, it’s a Transit.
Looks like the OP’s not the only one to get his vans mixed up...

Nothing useful to add other than there were 2 Openreach vans parked in my road earlier this afternoon. Both were Vivaro's.

I also overtook 3 more on the A31 near Guildford later on - they were all Vivaro's too eekhehegetmecoat

Fun fact I learnt as a consequence of this thread. The new Vivaro will be a re-badged Citroen rather than a Renault.

Of course it all went downhill when BT stopped using those yellow Commer vans......

OP, did you paint yours white?

Cant the council create 2 more spaces? one next to your van and ne next to your Jaguar on the grass. That seems to be wasted space and more beneficial for parking?

Because it would probably require a 5 year planning review, and when it was eventually approved, the laying of a bit of tarmac and a couple of dropped kerbs would come in at £6.4 million. Plus the neighbours would probably object....... smile

Many thanks for reviving this pathetic thread.
