Shame the steering wheel rim was showing wear with so few miles. Steering wheel had cruise control and radio/hands free functions. I didn’t use it much but when I did it worked perfectly. Cruise ControlĪ nice touch and easy to use. Display on the stereo stopped working if it got hot but sound was okay and BT, aux and USB inputs and steering wheel controls. But probably easy enough to pick up and aftermarket unit. The major problem with the stereo was that the screen packed up when it got hot.

Sound was decent enough, it had AUX input, USB, Bluetooth and a CD player, also steering wheel controls. Enough storage, cubby hole above radio and massive bin in front of passenger Sound System All-in-all there was enough storage especially when you include the door bins. Great location of the cup holdersĪlso cubby holes in the centre of the dash for papers and what not. You weren’t reaching down trying to find your drink. Cup holders for driver and passenger and they were located in excellent positions. Considering the low mileage this is a concern if you are wanting to keep an NV200 into big KMs and/or for a few years. The driver seat was already starting to fray on the bolster and the steering wheel was also looking worse for wear. Generally though it was more than acceptable. Materialsįor a van, the interior quality was decent, sure the plastics are a bit cheap but which van doesn’t have cheap plastics? Cheap hard plastics throughout the cabin but generally the plastic felt okay in quality ie they wouldn’t fall apart and they didn’t look too bad. Having said that, the position itself was fine, I didn’t feel the need to adjust the recline of the seat or the position of the steering wheel.ĪutoExpress have said the NV200 is not as comfortable as the Doblo or the Transit Connect and I am sure they are right but I would counter by saying the NV200 is a van whereas the Doblo and the Connect are basically cars. In a van comfortable seats are a must have (for me). I have complained about the quality of the seats used in the MK1 Focus but after sitting in the NV200, the Focus seats seem palatial. Quite hard and unforgiving, after about an hour the discomfort starts to creep in. It had 84,000 kms and I would guess it was three years old.ĭecent enough lateral support but the padding in the seat has been compromised by cost cutting (a recurring theme). 7 seater minibus converted to a van ie all seats removed This meant the NV200 had windows all round and carpet in the back which must have made things quieter. It was actually specced as a 7 seater mini bus but the rental company, Avance in Thessaloniki, removed the seats so we could use it as a van. The model I had was the 1.5 DCI version, K9K engine code.
