Manufacturer description

The Ford Motor Company boasts that every Transit is built for purpose and the smaller Ford Transit Connect is no exception with a large cargo capability lending itself to all sorts of commercial van users. Shaped by Ford kinetic design, the van has improved aerodynamics for greater fuel efficiency and high-tech lights for greater visibility. Component parts have also been designed for easy service and replacement. Oxford have replicated the Ford Transit throughout its evolution from the early 'box on wheels' to this latest streamlined body shape, which looks really good with its bold contemporary styling. Shown here as used in Cork on fire duties.
