Its definately the best Transit I have ever driven, the gear stick now comes out of the dash which makes for a better gear change and it feels a lot more comfy to drive.

I believe that the excessive amounts of plastic on the front will be body coloured on the next phase vans, the ones we are driving are the moment are still a long way from the finished article.

:twisted: Does it have a cup holder big enough for a lagre macdonalds mikeshake and a fold down burger holder.....If not i'l stick with my smiley!!!!!!!!!!!
:idea: P.S. does anybody have any improvments they would like to see on the new one. :?: How about a heated cup holder OR an automatic smell detector so when you let one go the windows come down on there own!!!!!!!!!!!!! :x Only joking i know all transit fans are not that distasteful.

You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.
