Before we order an new connect....

Postby BringTheRain » Tue Jun 28, 2016 7:57 am

Hi,

We have a transit custom and we love that. We are just about to sort out a new transit connect.

240 L2 95 ps

Just wanted to make sure there isnt a curse or something on these new connects.

Haven't done much research but i haven't seen a lot of bad press.

The only thing i wanted to know is there a new engine out 1.5 ? or are they all 1.6's ?

Thanks
