Good Points
Can't think of any.
General Comments
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 dealers didn't seem to be interested. I phoned Ford customer service, and I found them also not to be very interested. The funny thing is they would have done something about it had the van been younger than 8 years old, but since it wasn't tough luck for me.
Very very very expensive to run. I wouldn't take another Transit even if it was free. £2400 in 18months with the same fault, is more than my business can handle.

Good review. I'm still running a 1998 Transit which has been faultless in the 5 years I've had it, but I was thinking of upgrading to a newer model, butafter reading these reviews I think I will go for another make, maybe Toyota.
