VW Multivan: Review by Jeremy Clarkson

A review of the VW Multivan by Jeremy Clarkson. Yes, the guy from TopGear.

That the white van is in fact the British equivalent of the American pick-up truck. And the equivalent of the biggest, baddest, V10est, Dodgest Rammest of the lot is the van you see photographed here. The Volkswagen Transporter T30 TDI 174 Sportline. Welcome, everyone, to Britain’s fastest van.

There is, however, air-conditioning, a CD player and leather upholstery. It’s almost like being in a DFS store. Until you put your foot down.

Bloody hell it’s quick. In no time at all the speedo is reading a staggering 120mph. Then you’re right up the chuff of someone in a Ford Focus who’s doing 40, and this is where the VW really shines.
