Yes when i get mine on the road will put my sticker on haven't bothered up to now as i have been meaning to get rid of the one i have at the moment for a few years. It seems strange to me i can go to a dealer in Dekes country and buy a better looking van for less money and have peace of mind of a short warranty. Auctions just don't seem such a bargain to me. i don't think i will bother going again.

I've got a petrol transit which I run on Lpg. Love the heated front screen on these winter mornings. Like all the compartments in the front and the twin battery works well for charging my drill batteries with an inverter.

Always seems to be the same problems with transits but. Damp patches in back, general electrical probs( washer pump ,temperature sensor)

Think I might go vw next like the transporters and the caddys..

DBicket, I have been reliably informed that the new crop of VW vans suffer with electrical issues.

Zeespark. Oh well at least I'm used to them..

Had a transporter about 9 years ago and the side door used to fall off all the time.

My shiney brand new works transit got delivered late last year, and apart from people damaging it, its been top notch! Its a whole lot nicer than the mk6 shape ones (quieter etc), but 85ps is so slow and limited to 70mph I just seem to get in the way on the motorway. They've fitted them out with some sexy tevo racking in the back, with roller bearing slidy drawers and posh lin bin racks, just a shame its not mine in the end.

Had my 53 plate transit for 5 years and most expensive payout was on tyres, service it myself ( not hard )as I worked for a Main Ford dealer for 27 years as a Technician will get another soon always liked how they are built.
