When I went in my dealers this week they were fitting a roof rack and a ladder on the back door of a Sportvan. :(

Ladder and roof rack.
Just need a respray and a smiley front fitted. Turn the engine the right way round, put a proper rear axle on, towbar and a nice bar on the front and it will look right. :twisted: :D :P
Current Transit: Mk8 tourneo Sport with go faster stripes.

Long time sold: Mk5 LWB 190, 2.5di banana SHR, 3 seats, SLD, Twin rear doors (rusted bottoms), manual locking & windows.

I just spent a while looking for the spec, must have mis typed something in the search box :oops:

Did find this though

http://www.autoebid.com/vanDetails.asp?locator=11507 just a little saving don't know if it is 100% kosher. Seems as though unglazed rear doors ARE available and included so perhaps more changes from the press release version :?

Yes but they are all made mate, lined up at Southampton. If your dealer is offering options on these then it's the only dealer that is!
