+ Test drive 😊

That would be treacherous😂😂

Also flexiny, small leaks in cooling hoses fixed temporarily

😂😂😂😂

Thank you!

I agree with most of that. Personally, commentary can be fine if it adds context to the video. If it's just promoting or engagement driving speak, that can all bugger off lol

😢

sheer will.

A modern transit with that much rust would have fallen apart, it’s usually the engines or rust that kills the modern ones now

​@larryazz9313 or, more likely still, the fucking computers in them. Why car manufacturers felt that necessary I do not know.

It's a Transitvan, they always will.

Yup, tough little engine if looked after and maintained properly. 👍

It’s so odd to see a petrol engine in a van

​@@dexietyy7922 nowadays yes, but it was more common back then, even if not as much as the Mk1 which was 2 Diesels for every 1,400 petrols lol

@@RWL2012 I think it’s really cool to see petrol engine in a van wish it was more common

That’s a ford for you very prone to rust unfortunately. It’s a good idea not to have one if you live by the sea the salut air doesn’t work well for them

You'll never go wrong on an old diesel engine. I started a 1997 BMW TDS sitting for 7 years. It gave me no headache.

You are soo right! ❤❤❤

Ma non li fa la carrozzeria però

so true

I drove plenty of face-lifted mk1's with pintos back in the '80s. But yes, by the time of this iteration petrol vans in the UK were less and less popular. My late dad had a 2000E with this engine, God he loved that car. Happy memories.

Yeah, even the smileys are a rare sight now, still see the odd one but mainly custom/camper vans

It's a MK3 with 6 bolt heavy duty rear axle for the European market.

@@aaronblueandme8127 it’s a transit 100 or 120 depending on axel weight If it had twin rear wheels it’d be a 160 or 190 the 3500kg max for use without tacho which meant day and night driving legal

No bananas here😂

You can hear a 2.5di from a 100yards. 😂

Ay seen an old Transit for ages the oldest one I have seen is like a 2006 Plate. Maybe the Ice Cream Van that parks up by the school by my house Is a 90s Transit I think. I used to see a late 80's early 90's Transit in Blue and a rusty white one from time to time a few years ago ay seen it in a while

They also make good sheds 👍

@@ronniekray6918 My old neighbour had a Transit for that exact purpose 😂 Think the council removed it in the end as neighbours were complaining it was an eyesore. 🙄

You'll see how south americans will prove you wrong lmao

Great question! I wondered that, too. Some I think he possibly sells (like the Vectra which came up nice recently) but this old van - 🤔 - too far gone I’d have thought. Not even for spares.

@@iixorb it probably could be used for spare parts but in terms of the body nothing is salvageable because of the rust. I’m sure the rims, trim pieces, and interior bits could probably still be usable.

Some may be parted out for spares, while things like this Transit are most likely given one last hurrah before they go to the scrapyard.

I guess it's case by case. I saw one of Flexiny's cars recently listed in Estonian local sales portal with a price not much higher than scrap metal price. About especially this generation Ford Transits, those what are still in the move are usually not missing mechanical parts like engines or gearboxes, but are suffering of rust in frame and body. And those rarities who are still in mint condition, they don't want to utilize anything from this old beaten up one. Entertaining us in youtube was last job of this old van before going to metal recycling facility. Scrap yards are already full of 90'es cars which are in far better condition than this one and they are not buying them in any more.

Поработали эти машины на совесть😊

Just what I was thinking. I've only known these as diesels. I can remember the sound of those noisy Ford diesels.

This noisy sounds were beautiful

Loads of these were petrol as well. Very popular here in Italy as a GPL duel fuel as campers.

They were very popular in Bulgaria 10-15 years ago because you can put an LPG system.

Only know about diesel transit vans, Learnt something new today.

Jobbar på det är det inte finns några som är på väg till dig jag är inte bara för det var inte meningen jag är så himla kul 🤩 det här det går att använda sig mer än att p-piller för det var en av dem är du på

Ni yo tampoco

En esta Generacion tanto en la siguiente hubieron 2 motores 2.5D y el 2.0 Gasolina que es el mismo que el Ford Sierra de esos años. Por lo que me comentaron el 2.0 Gasolina tiene mas velocidad cuesta arriba que los 2.5 Diesel...

To już nie na tym kanale😅

Imagine how many older cars could still be on the road today in the UK if MOT wasn’t a thing and road salt wasn’t used. I also worry about a lot of the gray market imports from North America and Eastern Asia and the parts availability for those cars as they age in the UK. Most cars here that are driven in the winter are usually killed off by rust as well. I remember hearing about how someone’s body on frame Tahoe split in half because of how bad the rust was. It’s a double edged sword I guess. On one hand, you give people with lower levels of income a means of transportation but on the hand you get more vehicles that have extensive corrosion issues; although the latter usually takes a while to develop.

@@whatamisupposedtoputhere MOT is a thing in many countries, its basically to help ensure that deathtraps that could fall apart at 60MPH and kill people due to severely corroded bodywork and chassis etc that lets go at speed. Imagine if that old Transit was allowed to drive on a highway in that condition, and it had a major structural failure leading to suspension or steering failure at speed, well, I know MOT is a nuiscance that can write a vehicle off and deem it beyond economic repair, but do we really want dangerous, defective vehicles driving round, that could potentially cause death and injury to other motorists? I drive safer in the UK knowing that the vast majority of cars behind or in front of me are not about to shear in half or suffer major mehcanical failure in the brakes, suspension etc, or are driving round on tyres that are so bald they could blow out at any moment - We all hate the time our cars have to have their yearly inspection, and the costs it could incur, but if it was a country or state that didnt have inspections, would you want to be hit in the rear by a van like the one in this video? Gotta be safe rather than sorry, even if this means a vehicle is sent to the scrap yard before its 15th birthday. I'm all for cars of 30+ years old driving round, but only if they are roadworthy and safe to drive. Funnily enough, in the UK, cars over 40 years old are considered historic vehicles and as such do not have to have MOT tests, but even then, the police could still order them off the road if they find them not safe to be on the roads.

​​@@whatamisupposedtoputhere safety inspections are a good thing. In the states a lot of places don't have them and people will happily put their life at risk if it means not spending a dime on maintenance. High standards ultimately make the world a better place.

@@stevejones1972 Yeah the safer the better. I’d much rather be at peace knowing most cars around me won’t break apart at any moment. Yeah this van is pretty much destined for the scrapyard. Most of the time at the end of the video they have a still shot of the car running but this thing was so bad that it could barely even stay running which is something I haven’t seen with any other car on this channel. This is one of the few times I’ve actually watched a video like this and wished that it would die to put itself out of its misery. Sorry if my last comment seemed so tone deaf and ignorant, I was incredibly tired and drunk writing that.

@@stevejones1972 its all down to the idiots putting wrong things in wrong places. its obviously dumb as fuck to drive a rusty ass deathtrap at 60mph on the motorway or main roads. but why is it a problem if someone drives a rusty ass half dead car at 30mph at tops through very empty backroads for like 10 miles to another village? unfortunately people didn't have common sense, like always, hence rules needed to be enforced, just like with speeding, and everything else, it being down to milking our tits off the most money possible is another story though... this particular Transit however, yeah it's only good for pretty much dirt road, off road and farm use until it breaks in half and then to scrap it away.

this is a Mk3 2.0 petrol, so neither
