Fiat Ducato

The Fiat Ducato is a no-nonsense workhorse that turns practicality into an artform, with a cavernous, flexible load area and predictable, car-like driving manners that make long days behind the wheel far less tedious. It’s equally at home with a tradesman’s kit or a camper conversion, offering sensible packaging, easy servicing and the sort of reliability that keeps surprises—and down-time—to a minimum.

Great car with a dynamic 1.5 engine and a 7-speed automatic; a downside is the electronics, which often shut off—terrible when reversing!!! It could also have a bigger tank because it averages 7 liters and at most 700 km.
