Called in at work on wednesday and they'd had 2 new drw jumbos delivered, parked out of the way in the corner of the yard. Have Ford redesigned the front end as they look different, bulge out more. First drw jumbo's we've ever had, usually all our vans over 3.5tonne are MWB sprinters apart from one LT and a crafter on contract.

I'd have took some pic's but didn't know they'd be 200ps, I'm pretty sure they didn't have colour coded bumpers, maybe wrong on that one, I'll take my camera next time, 200ps, all that power and limited to 56mph :lol:

No afraid not, mines a 56 plate 350 115ps, I'll get the chance to drive one though at some time I hope. We've got some 140ps's and they seem quick to me.
