Default Ford Transit Connect for sale...

My connect has been the best thing I've ever bought for my business, I bought it in 2006 and paid £7900 for it, it was only 14 months old on a 04 (June) plate and 9000 miles.

It now has only 56k miles on, I'm the second owner.

So the details.
It's ex Bt, it's been serviced by me since I bought it, oil and filter change every year.
It's the swb, standard roof 1.8lx.
Abs
Remote locking
Roof/ladder rack
Flashing amber light.
Plastic floor liner.
Full factory fit bulkhead.
There is also a safe underneath the passenger seat.
It's had seat covers on since I bought it so the seats are like new.
Mot'd until November 2014
Taxed until end of January 2014
In January it had new front pads, new battery, diesel filter, oil and filter change as well as air filter.

Been a brilliant van but just finding it a bit small lately for my needs, I just hope my next van is half as reliable.
I'm looking for £2800 due to mileage and general condition it's worth every penny as most of this age have 120-150k miles on.












Located in Brum.
Phil

Have you had any trouble with the clutch? The connects at work are constantly having theirs fixed.

PS, they're good fun to drift aren't they!

Never (touch wood) had any trouble with mine, mine is normally full of tools and materials so drifting isn't exactly on my list of fun things to do in it lol
Mine is only the 75hp turbo diesel engine (easily mapped to 90hp)

I don't know of any rust on it at all Gav, apart from a couple of very small dinks like you'd expect from a 9 year old van, the body is mint.

Bought a new van today so this is for sale within next week.

Dealer said I should easy get £3k for mine as there is no vat and it's low mileage.
