From personal experiences with our work vans ....

Peugeot boxer at 80 odd thousand cold start sensor failed
Injecting extra diesel into engine and diluting the oil and locking the engine

Citroen relay 70k and headgasket failed between water gallery and oil way
Dumping coolant into sump locking the engine

All motorway miles and serviced as per manufacturer's .
Our local pug dealer says no further than 10k between services and ideally shift on before 80k or expect bills .

Next van will be a sprinter/crafter .

It’s disappointing to face such significant issues despite following the recommended service intervals and using it primarily for motorway miles.

General concensus in the trade seems to be they are cheap and cheerful ...
BUT basically crap .

Even our local independent pug specialist says if you want reliable buy a sprinter ...

The ecu expert I was at on Friday said exactly the same thing ...

Buy cheap ~ buy twice .

The Sevels van platform is very popular and capable of extremely high mileage they can however start to look cosmetically very tatty seats and floor mats etc.

The high top maxi plated at 4000kg is the standard A&E Ambulance workhorse in many trusts.
The high roof creates room for a bit of creativity such as an electric drop down bed

Highest mileage one I have worked on, a 3.0l Peugeot Boxer variant had 540,000 on the clock!
