Hmmm not convinced. I really liked the Transit Custom when it came out but the more I see it the more I dislike it.

I have always had vws but in work I have recently been given a lwb high top transit, it's only a couple of years old and is already falling apart! Door seals are hanging off and waters pouring in,the lights blow regular,it's rusting all over the place but, it drives really well,!!!!it's the rear wheel drive version and is so much better than the front wheel drive, still a piece of crap though !

What annoys me about ford vans is most of the stuff that people dont like about them will be overlooked by ford and never improved on.

I must have missed that bit, Where does it say that..

I'm not in any way shape or form thinking about getting a transit by the way... LoL
I've not owned anything but Volkswagen for the last 23 years I'm not about to now....

I have to drive ford vans at work and they fall apart after a couple of years and very poor build quality compared to VW's. Saying that had nothing but issues with my works Vito as well but that should be getting replaced very soon.
