New transit brochure

Postby Damien89 » Fri Aug 02, 2013 10:34 am

Ford has put the first brochure of the new transit

http://www.ford.co.uk/Hidden/iBrochure/All-New-Transit

Biggest minibus will be 17 seat plus driver with the rear seats removable from rails.
Good good good!

As somebody said about the custom, the dash doesn't look practical at all, too many curved surfaces. That's why I like the mk6 dash, simple, practical and everything falls to hand easily. It's a car dash in a van and its a stupid idea. And it looks like a Peugeot too.

I like the mk7 dash better as it has the most space to store stuff.

Looks good, except the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Any pricing yet?

Is it really 17 seat+driver for the european market? That would put it in full PSV teretory (for driving licenses).

Most you can drive with a minibus liscense it 16 + driver...

17 seat + driver is good because it will take 1 more than rubbish citroen/fiat van.

Could be that ford will still make available 16 seat +driver for non psv licenced drivers.

That's hideous, too American looking at the front. Rest of it is bearable. Won't be getting one of those unless the front is changed; which will probably happen sooner than later once they look at the sales figures plummeting over the first year.
