New model should come to the rescue of LDV as the Convoy rapidly comes to the end of its useful life and market share starts to slide rapidly. Tried and tested driveline is the only redeeming feature as lack of interior comfort, noisy engines, and hefty driving experience combine to put the Convoy at the back of the class in this sector.
Ford 2.4-litre engines are the current motor of choice from the Birmingham-based van builder, offering either 75 or 90hp.
A four-year/150.000 mile mechanical warranty as standard will be enough to attract some buyers and the fact that many LDV dealers are also truck dealers should ensure round the clock servicing and call-out availability.
