And it features even the (in Germany) almost impossible to find RS front spoiler! Nice one, indeed! :)

I didn't know it's sold as standard option in the UK, here in Germany it's a part from the RS department! That's why they're so rare here, cos not many people connected a Transit with Fords (mainly) motorsport parts department, so few sold new here with this item! Only the Ghia Bus, Hymercar and the "Clubmobil" here featured this standard! Both are very rare, even when new!

Would now be a good time to mention I have one on our minibus, and on on the panel van bought years ago when Ford was still selling them!

Yeah, I saw them, especially your panel van looks great! :) Sadly, Ford doesn't sell any longer the old "sought after" parts! :(

I have to say I think we bought the spoiler from Ford in the early 90s, when they were still selling Mk2 parts new, if I had know then what I know now, I would have stocked up!

If the rust you see is only surface rust (hard to expect from Finalnd), it could be a good buy.
