SVVB 24 July 2003 The arrival of the Connect heralded a new dawn for Ford one that saw its line-up become more focused and begin to challenge for the top spots and this thoroughly engineered vehicle Is as sharp now as it was when launched.
On the business side you get impressive build quality coupled with a payload of up to 900kg. Load volume is also competitive with 28m3 for the standard model and 3.7m3 for the LWB version.
Admittedly it is a bit of a heavyweight at 2,200kg, in contrast to much of the lighter competition.
But this only adds to its surefootedness when out on the road. It starts, stops and corners with confidence. Furthermore, the interior is exceptionally well thought out and a secure place to be, thanks in part to the fulllength bulkhead.
LIKES AND DISLIKES..
v Excellent build quality and design v Driving ability
x Heavy kerbweight affects fuel economy
