2013 Ford Transit - Feast Your Eyes

[KevAmiga]

I like it

[franc-n-freighter]

Steering wheel is on the wrong side.

I dont like it, they have gone towards looking too much like the cheap and nasty european vans from the likes of fiat and citroen. The only reason people buy that crap is because they cant afford a transit, i doubt they'll be able to afford that compared to a fiat either.
To me, it doesnt look like a Transit should look like, even the connect is a nice look at and well proportioned.

[pat stevens]

must admit im not really into this one at all
you have always been able to tell a transit from the rest right from the mk1 up to the mk7
this one looks too much like a vw vito type of thing
probably go well with the euro box fans
at the end of the day whats it gonna look like with 50k on the clock and used as a builders hack
far too much plastic

This apparently IS the 2013 Transit replacement!
Just because they want to sell it in the US, they just killed it everywhere else???!!!!!

OMG....

Not liking the front end at all...may look better in a different colour...

Looks longer than current Jumbo,a bit more over hang from rear wheels...

Interior looks OK though...

Not keen on what looks like indicators on wing mirrors.....

fooking sh*t

[whitemice]

Truly awful, Ford Tadpole, quite like the grille badge.

So if that is the VITO equivalent (Although I think more VW transporterish) I am thinking if they up spec the trim and comforts in a similar fashion - The Mk 8 (Sprinter equivalent?) will be the woofers danglies ...time to pawn a kidney maybe

Absolutely NOT
That van, looks like a very old woman that's had a bad facelift

I thought it was just the grill viewtopic.php?f=30&t=117258 but it's more serious

[catmangler]

Strikes me they've facelifted the E Series, which this replaces, and then told everywhere outside the USA that this is what they get...
I wonder if anywhere outside the US will get the 3.6 twin turbo petrol lump?

So, we have a Focus size facelift Connect, which looks OK, a 1 tonne Custom, to replace (approximately) the old FWD models, which isn't bad, and the 2 tonne Afterthought...

Glad I no longer work on these things. It gives me a migraine.

[ake]

It's a whole new vehicle, not a face lifted E series

The colour of this van will make or break it
