There's a rather nifty calculator thingy here. (I've just checked it, entering some random data, to check that it doesn't want you to pay for something or to sign up to something. It doesn't. It just produces some really useful information):

Having once driven a Vauxhall Combo 1.7 Diesel Van I would say no.
