my 2003 ex posty transit

[john leeman]

Still say that van does not need a paint job yet. That rear view looks good. Would not mind an ex post van when I retire. Matty where are you ?. J.L.

I will do when its finished....and when I work out how to put pictures on here.

Just need to decide whether to sleep with the front windows slightly open to let the condensation out, but let some heat out as well...

Or keep them shut and keeo the condensation in, and the heat in!

hiya im in sutton bridge norfolk / lincs border
i know what your saying about not needing paint , some times it looks good , but some times it looks like red powdercoat
iv tride tcut but that does nothing ....
i have bought a pair of doors for the front and the new side door so they will be nice and shinny and the rest wont mach

i would deff recomend getting a posty van , i didnt think i could afford a mk6 transit but then this beasty come along (on ebay) im well happy with it

[Geoffers]

Yep, i'd say def get one if you are after a cheap Mk6 transit with low miles. Just get one with as low miles as you can find, and as straight body work as you can find. Don't buy the first one you see unless its a minter! The doors are always bent because they pick up their post bags and shut the doors with their knees.

Mine has a sheet of paper in the glove box with the delivery route on it. So I knew exactly where it had been driving around Leeds for the last 3 years delivering letters. It had even been going past my mates house in Headingley every day!

Looks with the alloys.

thanks for all comments

really pretty van.... 15" alloys look good with it ! I think I buy the same "aez vantage" for mine.

[algieboy]

Nice van mate looks and love those alloys,they set it right off,as for you using tcut would defo not use it as it is to abbrasive use a mild cutting polish like poorboys SSR1 and finish off with a good quality wax to protect it,

[mattty]

thanks matey ........i keep trying different polish and wax , but never seems to do much ....
i have a old astra gsi and that turns pink in the sun, one coat of wax has it lookind as new very deep red
where can i buy that polish , iv never heard of it but looking at you van it must be good..........thanks
