I bought a Ford Transit 260 SWB with 100000 miles on the clock, and a week after the fuel pump went at the cost of £1200. 18 months later and less than 10,000 miles same thing happened again. Seemingly the pump has a guarantee period of 12 months. The pump was fitted at one of Fords main ...

I bought the Ford Transit 260 Van 2 years ago and I can honestly say that it's the best van I've ever driven. I chose the 100 psi engine for the extra power, whilst still retaining the extra low load height that the front wheel drive offers. It is very fast thanks to the excellent turbo diesel and v ...

In my opinion after driving the Ford Transit 260 for 25,000 miles, I am very satisfied with the running costs, and the comfort levels to a point, compared to the older 2.5 transit that I covered 150,00 miles in. There is a great deal of improvments but I must say that because of every other manufact ...
