I am on my third one in nine years. The first one was a 2.8 lovely van sold it at 240000 miles great van. Had a 2004 with a 3.0 engine, do not touch terrible engine. Had a new engine at 56000 and needed another at 120000, got rid quick. Current van 2.5 120bhp chipped to 150bhp on 75000 miles no trouble and getting an amazing 34 to the gallon. I have heard that gearboxes are suspec but never had a problem with them.
