So got into the newly aquired ford transit, old but apparently with all the bells and whistles of the time

Strong pornography in the glove box?

I’ve been buying transits for the past 30 + years and haven’t found anything as durable

because that visor was nicked by the OtherHalf and installed on his/her side.

Time for a scrap.

 

I was Transit for 3 gens, ending up in a LWB 140 which shot along, until the hugely unreliable bag-of-shit blew up. £0000's spent and ended up scrapping it.

Bought a '64 plate Merc Sprinter 316, and I would never change away from it. 210,000 on the clock; no smoke, no noise, and still goes like stink and drives like a car.

You're not supposed to be touching up your mascara as you go! ffs

^ chap that did our screeding had a similar story. Dyed-in-the-wool Ford man, til about three years back when his last Transit left him stranded twice, parts took for ever to arrive, and then the repair was botched for good measure.

 

He's now in a MAN sprinter clone and will *never* touch Ford again.
