MY Mk7 LWB 2.4 TDCi RWD LX in Moondust silver *update P.2*

[madmark]

its for car park tickets thats from a guy at fords we spoke to at a dealer day ! well she is a very very nice van mate well done!

[matg]

Thanks for the replies all

I may look at getting some alloys but to be honest unless they were dirt cheap I probably wont. I have 3 modified cars that I will lose £1000's on let alone my van as well

However I will be changing a few things to make it a little bit more personal to me and making the longer drives more enjoyable. I will start a thread about that a little latter today as I need some of your expert advice

Yep as above with the card slot, I was told its for parking tickets as well (although I don't know of many multistory car parks that a LWM medium roof can get in too) I was also told by the dealer its for ID cards, for example delivery men that need to show cards to get into industrial sites etc. I am not sure I will ever use it to be honest.

Found out this morning that it has twin batteries fitted as well, which means I have lost the nice storage unit under the seats but it does mean that I can link up my toys without worrying about the battery draining

Thanks for the comments again

Pictures of my install/racking in my transit

Its not quite finished yet as I need to do the following but its not far off, and I am quite proud of it

Bits to do:

Hang various tools we need to get at regularly
Build sub and amp section (its going to be removable as that space is also for a sanding machine I have)
Build inverter into rack
Lay anti slip flooring inside the shelving to stop noise and movement of tools etc...

Its taken the best part of two days (bloody rain), its a lot better than the old one in the Mk6 transit so I am well pleased with it



















What do you think :question:

[stevo]

Wow That is great. What do you use the van for?

[matg]

I am a floor layer, carpets, wood floors, safety flooring, vinyl flooring etc etc

So I need the space for large loads but also fo all the tools required for the different aspects of my trade

[stevo]

Great, did you ply-line all that yourself or just the shelving?

[matg]

I didnt ply line this one myself (I did my Mk6 though), it was already done by the dealer. Although I wish I had done it now as the job they have done is not all that great and the floor is a little flimsy, I may over board it in the near future.

[stevo]

Right. That shelving is top drawer mate.

[matg]

Thank you very much

Nice van mate the shelving is bang on you going to give it a few coats of varnish to keep it clean??

Whats that slot under the radio for ??? 1.44 Mb Floppy disc ... Maybe

Will be the Tacho option I would have thought.

According to Ford its to hold a car pk swipe card or fuel card holder (trouble is you cant get many tranny's under the bl--dy height barrier)
