Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Effortles, Foor a long day behind the wheel I honestly choose the Viano over a 2012 S Class!

If the space is big enough you'll get it in...The parking sensors and mirrors combined with a square back and sides make it very easy to judge distances.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No but it gets through a lot of tires.
What's most practical about your car?
Cavernous interior with enough space for 7 PLUS their luggage. (A lot of cars can carry 7 but few can carry their luggage as well).

Power operated (from the door or the dashboard) sliding doors are a must, as is the factory tinted privacy glass.
