Ford Transit Custom

"This 2019 Transit Custom 280 L1 in Low Roof Limited trim delivers a strong balance of power, practicality and comfort. Under the bonnet is a 2.0-litre EcoBlue diesel engine producing around 130 PS, mated to front-wheel drive, giving good efficiency for long runs and urban work alike. The Low Roof height keeps overall vehicle bulk down without sacrificing too much internal load height � ideal for manoeuvring and parking in tighter spaces. On the exterior it features a sleek black finish (often in metallic or solid paint), body-colour bumpers, mirrors and front grille details, plus side mouldings for a more premium, cohesive look. Extras include features such as one-touch electric front windows, ABS, ESP, and a diesel particulate filter plus Ford's Eco Mode and auto stop-start to help reduce fuel use and emissions. Inside, the Limited trim brings upgraded touches: cloth upholstery, reach and rake adjustable steering, well-thought-out driver conveniences like illuminated vanity mirrors, a moulded cab floor liner, under-seat storage, and assist handles. It also tends to include some comfort features such as air conditioning (manual), multiple 12V sockets, and decent sound/deck options. The load area offers good dimensions � over 2.5 metres of load length, respectable width between the wheel arches, and several tie-down points. Safety and usefulness are also well catered for, with features like front and rear parking sensors (on many examples), good visibility lighting (auto headlights, headlamp levelling), and robust van design including reinforced doors, flip-down tyre carriers, and durable flooring or lining where fitted."
