Is it in a good state considering its age?

[Jonnyboy Rotten]

Says its a 2 litre petrol engine? That can't be right? Should be diesel? They don't even make them with petrol engines do they?

[Steff]

They do mate, most of them old ones are 2.5 diesel but 2 litre petrol is an option too.

I'm particularly tickled by "Will post to United Kingdom" - can you imagine how much bubble wrap and packing tape you'd need to get that thing onto the front doorstep safely?

"What Did The Romans Ever Do For Us?"

Made Ford Transits going by the age of that.

It's probably why the Romans built the roads straight if you've ever tried steering a Transit around a corner flat out?

I once heard someone say that Transits have been around since Christ was a boy. Turns out he was right.

That is correct. The Emperor Tiberius bought one of the first models, IIRC.

One should never buy anything from anybody who cannot speak Engrish propterly...
