There is some nice colours @Ripley55 I saw a nice electric blue one on the road by my work the other day. First one I’ve seen.

Looks nice but still don't like the front bumper. Especially the lower half. From the front doors back it looks more connect/Peugeot partner.

Front of the van looks like a chimpanzee and the back a vintage woody.

I think it’s a call to arms 😂
All of the caddy’s have had inherent beauty, and even though VW screwed us over and cheaped out on the MK4 even, we still turn these Vans into something like the bell ends at VW should have built in the first place 😁😁😃
Give it a couple of years and the challenge will have been taken up, and a few of them are going to look awesome with new front and rear ends/wheels/suspension etc etc and hopefully a solution to that god awful side rail 😂😂😂

Ugly is just ugly, no matter how much lipstick you put on it.

Picked 122ps DSG Commerce Pro up on Tuesday to replace a Connect that I was struggling to tolerate, plus even though my old one annoyed me at times I missed it.

It does look better in the metal, especially with the LED lights and the tailgate, it drives a lot better than the old caddy, and it very refined, mine will be covering the miles, so I wanted comfort and this van delivers.

Also a pic of my old Caddy, is it on here.

Nice colour!
Have fun cleaning all those holes in the front bumper 😂😂
Losing the smooth sides such a big mistake by VW 🙁

I didn't quite realise the back end was just as ugly as the front end, those lights are horrible.

Nice red
👍

Lower front grill needs to be gloss black.

Rear LED lights are $tarWars (love/hate)

Rear generally looks 🤐

Side slider rail is terrible. Needs colour coding, or black, or ?¿?

@ sportvan you got any more pics of inside, side view and under bonnet?

Has any one got pictures of a caddy maxi kombi with factory rear seats in a mk5?

You know what, the look is starting to grow on me. I do agree the front lower bumper insert needs to be gloss black.
Also I quite like the look of the rear with the tailgate.
Would be interesting to see a solid tailgate.

Some of the new VW colours are very nice.
There’s a nice new transporter round the corner from us is a new colour. Like an orangey bronze.
