Ray did a good job capturing the first Mk8 Ford Transit photograph. By comparison, my efforts with the smallest of the new Transits leaves something to be desired. It will do for now though. The new Ford Transit Courier is based on the Ford Fiesta platform and is thus slightly smaller than the Transit Connect (based on the Focus). Production started (in Turkey) in 2014, with the first service vehicles being a batch delivered to Frank Pick House in Acton from January 2015 onwards. These will presumably replace the existing small vans (Peugeot Bippers and Vauxhall Astras) in the Lifts and Escalators section. On 18th February 2015 two new vans were parked in front of Frank Pick House. 7972F is nearest the camera with 7965F beyond. Ironically the Courier name has been used by Ford before, also for a Fiesta-based van, built between 1991 and 2002. |
