Mercedes-Benz X-Class (2018/18) 250d (187ps) 4Matic Pure Double Cab Pickup Auto Van For Sale

Franchised main dealers remain the safest way to buy a new van - but you'll pay for the privilege.

They typically hold the newest, best-condition stock and they charge correspondingly high prices.

Your money pays for the quality - but also the overheads of running a glitzy dealership, the free coffee and the courtesy vehicles.

That said, you'll get the most protection and the most comprehensive warranties at a main dealer. It all depends on your attitude to risk.
