Love this series of Ford vans just mental. Maybe the Royal Mail should have a few...

The tittle made me think of something completely different, lock down is obviously having an effect!

Wow, if my transit went like that I could reduce travel costs to the client by 90% 😆
I suspect it's a completely different beast under the transit looking bodywork though, I have trouble keeping mine on the road at (nearly) legal speeds.
Thanks for posting.

😆 I was out in the Morgan one weekend and got chatting with a guy in Pennan about the car, he asked what other vehicles I had in my collection, I think he expected Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini etc. When I said a Transit van I thought he was going to wet himself.😂😂😂

Love it, you only need one fun car in my book tbh I couldn't exercise another one enough to justify it. I enjoy trundling around in my 60 Reg Fiesta Titanium Diesel, it does everything I need and is a bit more economical than the Plus 8  The Fiesta does however have an appetite for alloy wheels, I have had to replace six so far since the car was new due to pot holes, and at £150 a pop it's not a totally joyful experience. However it's easier to pay than attempting to converse with some jobs worth at the council about pot holes..

Thread drift alert. I couldn't believe how bad the country roads were in England when I came down to buy the Morgan, not perfect by any means up here but have only ruined one alloy wheel in a pothole ever.

I well remember being at Brands Hatch for the Easter meeting and seeing the original van go-----and boy did it go. I cycled so fast back home after being enthralled by it probably going ---brmmm-brmm, all the way.
Here for a good time not a long time!!

Love this series of Ford vans just mental. Maybe the Royal Mail should have a few... There's a few copycat vans drive up and down our road dropping Amazon parcels, they clearly think the legality of our 20 zone is for 'others' !
