We used to have an L300 and my daily driver in college was a Besta 2.2. The MB100 rides and drives better than both of them. On the open road it feels like a Victory Liner bus. Very planted and stable. Size-wise, I've gotten used to it, since the MB100 is where I learned how to drive.

The Starex drives better than the MB100 but won't hold as much people or cargo. Even the so-called 12 seater Starex has less cabin space than the MB100. Passenger room in the MB100 is almost like a bus.
