Hi,
I'm new here, but I'll expect to be back here if things go through.
Tonight a friend of mine goes looking to buy a Ford Transit Fourgon 2,2 TDCI 81KW. His previous van was wrecked by a bulldozer at a construction site, he was lucky to get out unharmed . As I am 'the car guy', he asked me to come along and take a look. However I know very little about minivans and I'd like to be of some help to him. Do you guys know some of the more common problems with these type of vans, any special things to look out for etc? Which area of the van is most prone to rust?
What do you think about the price?
Oh, and a quick translation of some of the dutch stuff in the ad (not that it's that hard to make out for yourself, but anyway)
It has got
ABS, double Airbag, electrical outside mirrors, Airconditioning, Radio & CD, Alarm, immobilizer, powersteering, tow hitch, Central locking mechanism
151.500 km = 94137 miles
Minor bodywork damage, recent full maintenance at 10/07/2014
1 year ford Assistance and passed inspection 10/11/2014
car pass
Thanks!
