I don't have it anymore, i jacked the job in so had to give it back, did a ton in it once but daren't go faster as its tracking was out but it had more power to do so however things started to fly off as I was going along

However i've also had a spin in a few others. A 2008 "RENTAL" Ford Transit Jumbo T350 (forgot the bhp) got 90 on the speedo which with a boot full of chairs and tables was really good i thought but it took me the best part of 10 miles to get to that pace
The best was (no suprise) a Merc Sprinter 316 CDI LWB and it went like stink, would give boy racers a shock make no mistake!! I had it well into the range of 100 - 105!
Also Vivaros and that bunch plus the VW Crafters also go quick, i must admitt i reckon the Transit is one of the slowest vans

as above but now de-catted /blanked egr /cleaned plenum and inlet ports = 100 mph
so was it worth the effort/grubby hands ? hell yeah

Cheers mate.
unless you have at least a 100 ps motor [or remapped equivalent]
