Transit crew cab . Feedback please .

alot more aesthetically pleasing actually..

 

No, you are right..the older model is a great buy. We had ours for 5yrs and worked the hell out of it, obviously the next obvious step was a newer one. I think we paid about the same for our older model all those years ago with 60k on the clock as we did for this one with 30k on it. Less than a grand in it anyway. There is more to it than just looks though, everything is just better. The cup holders will now accomodate much larger cups..

haha, I never knew the cup holders had been changed, thats it my crew cab is up for sale. Im upgrading.

Thats what I said, only takes about 2 attempts to get used to not having a handle. Remove it and smooth it though, not just disconnect.

 

Yeah Frank i should have removed it and smoothed it off but its too late now as ive just sprayed it and i aint doing it again:001_smile:

 

Apbell i think the chances of you getting a good older one are slim as those that have them keep them!! The new shape look nice and as said above better cup holders swings the deal:thumbup1:

i think you will struggle to find a decent old shape.im looking for a newer shape one.and ive only seen a couple old shape models on a few different sites.buy one cheap and do a total refurb on it.the wings are and other bits are dirt cheap for them..

Better cup holders . So I can have a larger coffee. Sounds like a plan . But like Frank said Those cup holders will cost me an extra few grand .

A 55 reg transit how are they with the electrical gremlins . The one I ve seen has a tacho ? .

yeah he sold it , i was guted i was out bid at the last min

 

Cheers for that . Did he get a good dollar for it ?

i have had a 55 plate transit for a while and to be honest i would stick with the old transits mate , like you said a couple grand more for cup holders does not really make sense . im also looking for another tipper but do not knows what to go for .

Is that because of reliability ? . Electrical gremlins ? please enliighten me .

What else would you consider ldv tipper . How about an Iveco 3.5t . I cant seem to find anything on the net other than mk 6 transits .
