have been reading advice about resistors, and swiches. sounds wonderful.
have just purchsed first transit. from reading posts, i seem to have a 1999, Mk5 "smiley". and i know it is 190 xlwb with semi roof (long cube) as that is what it was described as.
it has developed some irratations on my first long haul(120 miles) which is how i came to find this lovely treasure trove of information.
have just ordered haynes automanual, but may not need as the posts seem to be descriptive.
i look forward to posting soon, once i read the correct terminology from other posts, and to writing to some of you over the next few weeks, days and years with my purchase.
regards
BigNeil

thank you very much for your instant replies.
andyg : is it really rare to own a long cube or have a just bought such a rare thing that it will be difficult to find parts for?
or is it only when i need an exhast that this will be an issue.
anyway am sure that it is just the same as a normal transit just a wee bit longer!!!
however thank you again for the warmth of the welcome.

welcome mate you shoule be fine with long cube parts they share them with other model transits, just the body thats different - i dunno why long cubes are so rare they are a great looking van - infact they dont even do them on the mk6/7 shape any more

5 years on not as active as I used to be but am still about reading about 6 wheel transits and such like.........
although thanks to here i did fix the longcube prior to selling it and now this lovely mk6 over 3 years of ownership and now just maybe it might be time to change the oil and filter
