Hyundai iLoad

I'm looking to buy a van to go solo in the near future and was considering a Toyota HiAce LWB High Roof but the Hyundai iLoad caught my eye. Well priced and a reviewer said it may be popular with Grey Nomads. Anyone here have one or met a fellow traveller with one? Opinions? TIA - Bob
