Picked up my E Custom Sport from Birmingham Ford yesterday morning. Spent the day/night in Birmingham and Coventry so didn’t drive it much yesterday. Drove it home 340 miles today and first impressions are this van is brilliant to drive, a better ride than my Custom Sport diesel, probably because of the smaller wheels and the bigger sidewalls on tyres? Will be kitting it out between now and the 4th of January, then we’ll see how it fare’s as a works van.

Mega comfy to drive isn’t it, I think the biggest difference is the rear springs, it’s made the van much more comfortable.

Keep us posted 👍🏼

Aye it could be that, it creates quite a gap between tyre and wheel arch but if the trade off is a better ride I’m all for it. The drivers seat is a big improvement too, so comfortable, even on a long drive.
Will give an update once it’s kitted out and on the job👍🏻

Look forward to the update. I got a pcp quote on one the other day, too expensive. Think I will get a personal loan and wack a decent size deposit down. What colour you gone for?

I’m looking at ex demos and used ones with less than 4000 miles on the clock.

Daz why is that sediment filter so orange ? Reason I’m asking is I’ve used an ro system for 17 years and never had a filter that colour
4 month intervals(sediment and chlorine filters). Same condition as last time.

It’s rust from old metal pipes

Wow  that’s a bit concerning as it’s drinking water

Rusty nutz!! it'll make your hair go ginger
