That must have been a good evening,Transit documentary followed by Red Dwarf. I had a new one in 72,with the 1700 cc V4. It would not cruise on the m way at 70 -80 like the guy said,if you got it to 70,its top speed,it was shaking in a quite frightening manner. I wonder if the haulier still likes them,newer ones rust while you are looking at them.
I was in England in September, and I saw quite a few Ford Transit vans. Why we never got the Transit in the USA until just this last year is beyond me.
because Ford Already had the Econoline/E-Series in the US; and you would be sure that the US Ford Trucks Division would be up in arms because it wasn't designed and built in Detroit.
I reckon that would make sense. Now that the E-Series is no longer in production, that left room on the US market for something different, the Ford Transit! :)
i love how the bank robber was called "Bob"by as thats a nickname for the police and Bob was used in fords marketing campaign for "backbone Of Britain" but better known by me as "Bag Of Boll*cks"
Back in September I bought a ropey Transit Luton from a smug car dealer with a gold watch and he screwed me. I sold it last week to another dealer as it was rattling it's head off. He also screwed me. So basically I got a double Marsellus Wallacing over this Transit. I'm normally quite smart with these sort of things but I just got cool old Transit fever and bought a pig 😂😂 I'll buy another one. But not a tarted up knacker this time😂😂 That car dealer with the gold watch is still laughing at me.

My father bought in 1990 a brand new Transit and after 27 years it is still our best partner. Best van ever!
i bet you live in a warm country where it doesnt rain regular as they dont last 5 minutes here in england
this tape in itself is a great history lesson. thanks for posting
So glad to see this on here.I taped it on vhs, when it was first originally aired, then it got lost.......
"bobby king, ex bank robber" is perhaps the best interview subtitle i've seen

I'd love to get my hands on an early MK3 long wheel base semi high roof Transit (1990-1994) What a workhorse!!!!
I've got a last of the line mk2 van in a million bits which, Touchwood, will be back on the road next year ! can't wait.
David Cooper did you get it back together in the end?

Jason Carpp and to be honest, the Transit is a LOT more capable than the old E-Series ever was!
Are they?
I hope the Transit *never* goes out of production. I can't imagine the UK *without* the Ford Transit.
I have had transits for 41 years and will till I stop driving currently I have a mk5 190 tipper
Great vehicles
Theyre all new !!! 😁
supet
I think a lot of the appeal was it represented in a way rolling real estate, when you had one you had a place to go , that could go.

NOW TURKISH RUST BUCKETS WORST SECOND HAND VAN ON THE ROAD SO SAD
If you can't move it with a sack truck & a Luton Transit with a tail lift it 'ain't worth moving!
