Description

1985 Ford Transit Mk2 Crew Cab - LHD - Rare Survivor An exceptional example of the iconic Mk2 Ford Transit, presented in rare crew cab form with side loading door and rear tailgate. Finished in original beige and fitted with the legendary 2.5 DI engine, this van is a true time capsule and one of the finest examples available today. Model: 1985 Mk2 Transit, SWB, Crew Cab, LHD Condition: Immaculate, highly original Engine: 2.5 DI - starts instantly, runs and drives beautifully Features: Rare Ronal alloy wheels, side door & rear tailgate Restoration: Full windows-out respray carried out at a cost of 6,000+, completed to bring the exterior bodywork up to the same outstanding standard as the underside and engine bay History: Imported from Portugal approx. 3-4 years ago, full UK V5C in my name Storage: Always dry stored in current ownership, regularly started, lightly used The real highlight of this Transit is the underside and engine bay. Both remain in superb, unrestored condition, retaining originality that is virtually impossible to find today. The respray has ensured the exterior matches this condition making the whole van genuinely 10/10 throughout. Please study the photos carefully they speak for themselves. Mechanically, the van performs exactly as expected. Like all 2.5 DIs, it produces a light blue haze, but it does not overheat, consume water, or use oil. The engine is smooth, reliable and "sweet as a nut." This Transit has been cherished and preserved rather than worked into the ground, making it an exceptionally rare opportunity for collectors. It would be equally at home in a serious Ford collection, at classic shows, or carefully enjoyed on the road. Selling only because I am reducing my collection. Vehicles of this calibre are becoming near-impossible to source you'll struggle to find another Mk2 Transit in this condition. Located near Chesterfield, Derbyshire. Serious enquiries only, please.
