Again how do you make it 5? Have you included the New Generation as a Mk? That would be the only way you could get to 5, but the newgen doesn't look much different to the Mk3, only cosmetics like grille. :?

mk5 and mk6

Postby kensitas » Thu Mar 31, 2005 9:21 pm

nutters the mk6 transit came in 2 production on the year 1999 its the latest shape transit
the mk5 was up 2 was 1994/5 till 1999

all the other mks mean nuttin 2 me its only poor people with banger motors ;-)
a transit is not just christmas when it gets 2 ten yrs old its not only for christms but the scrappie 2 inferior deigns mk1 and mk2
they get better at mk3 with improvment in the mk5 transit now thats a machine pity the fuel pump isnt changeable between motors though due 2 the immoblisser so thats life now u are clear about what mk ur talking about
and any smart asses
the starship enterprise's hull integrity fails at warp 9.75 after 30 seconds ;-)
anyway any 1 got a fast transit mines does 117mph flat out
let me no what u got

Mark, what was Ashley's last personal best time? Do you think it was a little bit over 117 mph, and maybe not flat out?

With the exception of the 'smiley' which was, I believe called the New Generation Transit by Ford in thier own advertising, this is exactly what I am talking about. If the body shell SHAPE hasn't changed (ie Ford didn't completley redesign major parts of it such as the difference between the Mk2 and 3 wings, and I don't mean add an extra side repeater indicator but SHAPE) it's NOT a new transit.

Yup, having real problems with the textspeak now. Perhaps you could spend some of your vast wealth on a dictionary, or a computer with a working spellcheck :wink: . That's if you haven't wasted all your money on depreciation............... :lol:

I think that the jury's out on this one, but I would say Mk4, as that's how many basic body shapes there have been. Others would say otherwise.... :lol:
