Can any of you name the stars Ford Transit has been pictured with throughout its life?

Ford Transit has earned the reputation of being the A-list van in the whole world and ever since the first model rolled out the production line, it has been pictured with a lot of celebrities. A few of them are legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, Hollywood star Michael Caine, Henry Cooper and Sir Jackie Stewart.

It was the year 1965 when the first production model hit the roads, it made big headlines then and now in 2015 it is celebrating 50 glorious years of production. You will be amazed to know that last year its sales went so high that one vehicle was sold every 80 seconds.So much so that Transit has become a ‘cult’ as it is the workhorse that works tirelessly.

Ford has sold over seven million Transits since 1965, underlining how successful Ford Transit is in the global market. Out of these seven million, almost three million Transits have been sold in UK alone. Ford’s big van has been dominating this segment of the commercial market for 49 consecutive years. Another distinction it holds; the first van to secure a position in top 10 bestselling vehicles back in December 2013.

There is a huge difference between the first model that rolled out of the production line and the latest version.

The new model offers durability, comfort and interior just like a car while the load-lugging ability is also unbelievable. The real charm of this van is the range of 2.2-litre diesel engines with high-efficiency and durability.

Thanks to the new diesel engine technology, it now offers eight per cent better fuel economy and the carbon emissions have been cut heavily. Ford Transit is the best van for all kind of businesses and is unrivalled.
