“3ltr turbo iveco daily chassis cab”
Written on: 21/03/2013 by davidneicho
I bought this vehicle brand new from my local iveco dealership, and apart from one irritating flaw in the design i have been more then happy with its performance and durability. The 3 ltr turbo version is a bit juicy so i would advise going for the 2.3 version, one of which i have on a 05 plate. Also the turning circle on the earlier dailys are better. The design flaw i mentioned earlier is the near side mirror is partially obscured by the A post and I have had fitted the extra wide armed... (read more)

the daily is the worst van I have ever driven. Loud,bumpy,uncomfortable and unrealiable,spends easily as much time in the garage as it does on the road,also drinks deisel quicker than I manage a cup of tea. Give this a wide birth, buy something else, literally anything else!! (read more)

The company i work for have recently replaced the faithful lunar mileage Sprinters and VW Crafters with Ivecos, after only a short period of time working with them I am really missing the old fleet. First things first the box on it is a custom design for the company and although a stupid design is not relevant for this review. The build quality on the Ivecos however is poor at best with just the delivery mileage on them various bits of trim had fallen off, the cab all in all is a poorly... (read more)

On the day after driving this hunk of motoring misery, my back is still aching. The negative points posted regarding this vehicle cover all the problems I have encountered. With only 7000+ miles on the clock I would have expected a much smoother drive, not so. A worrying cluncking sound as the vehicle goes down the gears. When in heavy traffic and trying to pull out into heavy traffic, it's a nightmare. If I went for a test drive in a car that have the problems that these Iveco's have, I... (read more)

Bought my lwb 2.8 Daily in 2004 at two years old with 20k on the clock. I've done 100k in it since and barely had a problem to speak of. The cab may be basic but who cares? It's meant for graft and that's what it does. I've owned all sorts of panel vans down the years but when I do trade this in for a newer van I'll definitely be getting another Daily. Great van.

Our company has just bought hundreds of these things, our Sprinter workhorses are being phased out.
I'm not an owner I just drive them, I can't comment on reliability, too soon and not my department anyway. Same with value for money. So, I'm only commenting as a driver, nothing else, someone who has to sit in these things and do my job.
As for practicality, we have custom built bodies, they seem fine but they are nothing to do with Iveco.

This is my experience with these new ones exactly. From what you are saying you work at Tesco right? Our store changed all our vans from our semi auto sprinters that were still working faultless at over 200,000 miles but theses Ivecos are failing at 6,000 miles one had a new gearbox just after 3000 miles.

If it is the same company I think you work for too, then we have 7 of them and to be honest, apart from the jumpy gearboxes and unsupported seats, i prefer these to the sprinters, one they smell new lol, and two and tight turning circles on them are un-matched. They seem to be a lot more reliable than the sprinters we had, one of which used are whole budget up on continuous breakdowns. Give it time and you too will grow to love them, i know have :D

Our Company ( and yes I think I work for the same one ) recently replaced our 7 full auto sprinters with 7 of these semi auto Iveco,s. I have to agree with about all in the above review. The cab is badly designed.The seat is not in line with the steering column for a start. When compared to the sprinter there is little as regards oddments trays , door storage compartments etc..The semi auto box is a pain when trying to contol the speed during tight turns . The sprinter auto gave great control at creeping speed, though its a shame the sprinter steering circle was so poor ( probaly the Iveco,s best feature is the excellant steering circle). The driving postion is much more comfortable in the Sprinter and not such a joggly ride.Roadholding in the sprinter is also far superior. Bottom line is Id rather have my scratched , rusting , 200,000 mile + sprinter back than drive my shiny new 2,000 mile + Iveco Daily.

I am an owner/driver of a daily, first had a 2.8 110 bhp - which wasn't bad (old though - 2001!), now I've just bought a 2006 3.0 140 bhp and its hideous! NO suspension, vibrates like hell, what a miserble day I've just had after 10 hours in it, my old one is still sitting outside, so I might just sell this new one, I honestly think my first van - the dreaded LDV was a more comfortable drive than this thing! I don't know whether the vibration is a fault or not, but you feel in lots when sitting at lights etc, such a harsh drive.

35C18 MWB H2 Heavy Duty Van 2010, Really nice van, fantastic engine but has 1 major flaw- the handeling is attrocious. Van wanders very badly when going past other vans, lories, buses and in anything more than a slight wind and bumpy roads. When towing it can be dangerous and is not a joy to drive.

I bought 3 Iveco Daily twin wheel pickups in 2003/4. The oldest now at 500,000 miles, the others at 380 and 360,000. All operate delivering to building sites throughout UK, usually towing a 3.5 tonne trailer, and often at GTW which is an unbeatable 7 tonnes. Only one engine replaced, and that because of a mechanics error, it wasn't worn out at 400,000. All needed rear axles around 300-350,000. Gearboxes are still quiet.

What is all this twaddle about?. The facts are quite straightforward all of these vehicles are brand new so why all of the warranty claims. It makes me wonder how they will fare at the end of the warranty period of 200,000 Kms. Take a look at Hyundai 5 years unlimited kms and virtually no warranty claims. This is what I expect of a commercial vehicle, not having to return time and again and having to put up with the inconvenience and generally unsatisfactory outcomes from a brand new vehicle.

and they dont come to spec or even roadworthy. The side door leaks, switches dont work, handbrake sicks on permanently. The list goes on and on. If you buy a new one and there is not a letter `h` on the dash, it has been clocked and this came from dealer and iveco in writing. Correct for being worst van out there, but does drive nice. Your pocket will be lighter, spending the money on it though
