TRANSIT Custom is Glass’s Used Van Hero for January  – because it’s good looking and is available in a wide range of efficient and powerful engines and trims that offer something for everyone. So what are the key points?

Why a hero?

Great product, comprehensive range and wide dealer network

When was it on sale?

Replaced the old Transit 260/280 and was launched in 2012 at the Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham.

What’s good?

At long last, Ford have a purpose built medium sized panel van. The Custom is good looking and is available in a wide range of efficient and powerful engines and trims that offer something for everyone.

What’s bad?

They’re becoming more and more common. Every vendor at auction has plenty to offer and those without air conditioning have to work a lot harder to achieve a sale.

Ideal buy?

Transit Custom 290 2.2 TDCI 100ps L1H1 on 14/64 plate with 98,000 miles – £7,500 + Vat
