I think the higher payload of any van is rarer, I know when I was looking for my vauxhall combo 10years ago they weren't that many about ( 2 tonne payload ).
There are load of small differences between the two versions.

According to the parts list the only differences are the load rating of the tyres, the vin plate and the badge on the back door, which doesn't really justify the price difference when new. 10/10 for a good marketing ploy though...

Sorry I was referring to the combo van differences not the maestro van differences! Makes getting spares harder, things unique like brakes etc.
No marketing ploy, no connection with van seller.
