Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

The MERCEDES-BENZ VANEO (2002-06) 5DR MPV 1.7 CDI 91 TREND is a compact people carrier: a practical alternative to a hatchback, with a taller shape and more flexible cabin.

With a 1.7-litre diesel engine, the Vaneo suits family errands, school runs and commuting. Its roomy, upright cabin and easy access favour practicality over sporty handling, while its compact size is easier to park than a full-size people carrier.
