Great to see Ed back onscreen. Great presenter. Don’t limit him to vans.

Nice to see your back Edd, when i was a van driver [now mobile cranes] i HATED THE over priced Sprinter my boss at the time bought a new VW LT35 extra LWB which was MY VAN . I used to drive upto Longbridge [ROVER] and over to Land Rover Solihull and Loved that van So comfortable good on fuel [not that i payed] but it NEVER let me down. I put 167, 000 on the clock in 2 years right up until the GREEDY managers BROKE the back of Rover and i lost my job of 13 years, i also drove Lorries at the time. Since then i have been an VW/Audi guy all the way.

I just bought my first Volkswagen Crafter yesterday 😊 L4H3 RWD 177bhp.
After watching this video another confirmation that I made the right choice! Thx Edd! 👌🏻

Wheeler dealers is nothing without this guy

[phillattfield]

Ed. You are the best. Please do reviews on everything. You need your own TV show!

[EmyrDerfel]

Also worth mentioning that whilst the Crafter is no longer merely a rebadged Sprinter, you can get the new Crafter with MAN badges.

So you could be a white van man driving a white MAN van.

Great review as always mate, super job, Cheers

[petedrake]

Hang on, the transit is available with fwd, rwd and awd and automatic

[markscrivener]

Great review Ed, detailed and very informative.

[andyjackson]

Loving watching Edd again! Although I wonder how much of what he said were his own opinions over just reading a script?

[Spookieham]

Good review Edd. We need to see you back on TV mate. WD going down the US gurgler has left a gap that needs plugged. Car SOS has picked up the slack but there is still room.

[GarryMcGovern]

More Ed please! Don't care if it is a shopping trolley or a wheelbarrow: if it's got wheels and you have Ed review I'll watch it! 😉

[thedeadstig]

every review should now be done by Ed China :D

[Milkybar]

I now need a crafter in my life! Top job edd, good to see you back.
