The package is available on SWB 80 and 100 models and LWB 100 and 190s. All are fitted with the 52kW (70hp) DI diesel engine except the 190 LWB, which uses the 60kW (80hp) diesel. Prices begin at £10,450 (ex-VAT) for the SWB 80.
Ford has often used specialedition models to clear stocks in preparation for revised model ranges. In the case of the Transit Bonus II, it paves the way for phasing out the 52kW diesel engine and some rationalisation of the extensive model range.
Ford has also announced a power-steering option for the Escort van. It will be available on diesel 40 and 60 models and 1.4 litre CFi catalyst petrol-engined 60 models. The option will cost £335 (ex-VAT).
