I don't see what merits the TX4 has over it - other than Britain
manufacturing jobs perhaps.

I thought that the Benz Vito was simply an option, and that there are no
plans to get rid of the standard designs.


Quite right; it's a free market.
Just the Mercedes is probably better, and certainly better value than the
TX4 unless they drop their prices to planet Earth. Which they may well do,
when faced with competition.
