Ford Transit Forum

The following are needed for a reconstruction set in 2003, so they should be around 2000 models, maybe 1998 at the earliest.

LWB panel van

single cab tipper or pick up

crew cab tipper or pick up

All in plain white.

The shoot is in greater london, will be at least two days maybe three between 6-14th Dec. The panel van and single cab tipper is meant to be belonging to a large building company, the crewcab is a rental, so all would be written up with none damaging temp signwriting.

My bro has a twin wheeler, single cab tipper smiley front in white, but it has a blue body and its a 96. If you stuck though I can ask him about it.

Its this 1,




I know you said white, but did you mean the body white aswell as the cab as most the smiley transit pickups have either blue or black bodies.

I do need them to be all white, mate but will keep it in mind.

I can't believe how little interest there has been in this, all of the transits I need are late model! I have more luck finding Mk1s and Mk2s

Get your wallet out and watch them pile in

When did I ever say this was for free? When have I ever expected people to work for nothing? Anybody who doesn't believe me, ask Dave and Geoff who were in on the Supergrass shoot.

i think with this film work you gota have the correct coluor and size ,look etc ,if you have a white van it needs to be blue if its red it needs to white , if its twin wheel it needs to be single etc to get the vans you need you would have to buy a field full before it would be the correct one they want!

if you need latte mk6 then just pop out and hire one!

First of all, white LWB, current in 2003 (not necessarily brand new in that year), how rare is that? Not rare. I am talking about a van (of whatever Mk) registered between 1998 (5 years old in 2003 and 5 years old today) and 2003 (three years old today) I could even go older as long as the model was around in say 1998 and it's tidy enough to pass as say 3 years old, adn put later plates on it for the filming. Secondly, vans on hire fleets will be signwritten, and I need plain. Thirdly, I would still need a driver IF I can get the van from a hire company (and they will allow it to be filmed, some wont)

well i told you i have a l.w.b and its plain white Transit 2002 that model can be as old as ayear 2000 W or as new as 2006 if it helps

Sorry Geoff I forgot about that, be seeing you tomorrow (if you are there), any chance of a pic?

And Andyg, erm, I didn't expect a major body swap!!

I have a 230 drw high cube in white, if you're really stuck.

stay under 56mph then

STILL looking for a white pick up, they have dropped the crewcab (phew!)
