PARKER’S SUMMARY
Ford has given the fourth-generation Transit a much improved interior. There's still no steering wheel height adjustment available, but the driver's seat offers six-way adjustability and a comfortable, supportive design. The dash has numerous useful features including a glovebox, two dash-top storage compartments with lids, two 2-litre bottle holders, four cup holders and a dash-top tray that flips over as a convenient work desk. Wing mirrors incorporate additional wide-angle mirrors on both sides.
The Transit is easy to drive, with good driver visibility, light controls and a gear lever mounted on the dash, close to the wheel.
The Transit now benefits from the standard fitment of a number of electronic safety features. ABS with brakeforce distribution stops the brakes from skidding even with a light load. ESP stability control helps the driver recover control of the vehicle in slippery conditions or in the event of a sudden manoeuvre.
All models are fitted with a Thatcham-approved immobiliser, a lockable bonnet and a steering wheel that becomes inoperative if force is applied to it. Parker's Guide 4.5 Stars
COST TO RUN
The Transit is competitively priced and Ford offers a range of purchasing options. Maintenance costs are among the most affordable too. Its popularity is such that it will be easy to sell on if there is any life left when you're done with it. The diesels give frugal performance. The three-year/100,000 mile warranty gives a decent level of reassurance. 15,000 miles service intervals & insurance group 5E
