The latest 200PS Transits with the Double Cab Utility, VFS box body with aero kit, and 350HD 'Jumbo panel van with higher 2.6-tonne rated back axle with twin wheels.
We like
Load security offered by the Double Cab Utility, fuel savings from the boxvan aero kit and heavyduty back-axle options for 'Jumbo' models. Transit driveability still sets the benchmark for others to follow.
We're not sure
The six-speed box is too highly geared, the SIL is of limited value, and passenger leg room in the Double Cab Utility could be an issue.
We think
Add the Transit's superb road manners, in-cab storage and driver comfort to the latest 200PS 3.2-litre Duratorq diesel and you have the kind of 3.5-tanner that will more than satisfy the average light CV driver. New security and box bodywork options will keep fleet managers happy too.
