Possibly a trend, I've spent a lifetime of time money and love on the Fords. And as the saying goes, if you have nothing nice to say.......

The last time I saw the Connect there was hardly a panel not scraped or dented, at least it was relatively intact when my son vacated it, and left for a new life in Norway. Eldest son is now a director of the company, and doesn't drive the vans anymore.

I had new rear brake pads fitted , and had a new key with buttons sorted , also they replaced a broken brake bulb while it was in the garage , why scrap a van from rust ? , on a TV show they built a whole car from rusty stuff they found in the desert , I would rather the devil i know than replace it with a complete unknown quantity . :?
