Looks like a different van! Amazing what a fair few hours cleaning can do plus what a bargain! You’d pay double / triple that for a rotten shed up here 👍 subscribed and can’t wait to see more transformations!
Hi thank you very much for the positive feedback, I was very lucky with buying this one, I’d buy them all at this price. Hope you like the videos and I really appreciate you subscribing!
It’s amazing what results you can get putting some effort it ,had the same on my van looked like a explosion in a oil factory took me 20 hours to bring it up like new .👍
Well done.!!!Someone wiill have a good van......... I have had all models .... I run a mk7 2013 .Saving..up for a Custom .!!!Love all transits .Regular servicing .Proper oil and catch rust early......See you at TRANSITMANIA....2023.....SANTA POD.....Transits Galore .Wonderful....
Hi thanks for this, mk7 transits are the best in my eyes, I do hear that customs can be a lot more problematic than the mk7 but hopefully if you buy a nice one with lots of history it should do well! Thanks again.
Shiny. I just paid £500 for an 2010 reg one like yours . It needed a new turbo. Got it off eBay £139. Ran fine after the exhaust emptied of oil . But still have a problem with it . Starts first time but after a run just conks out and won't restart. I haven't had chance to feck around with it as its only been a couple of weeks. Think its the diesel pressure regulator.
Your right to check the underside thats the problem with transit vans the chassis legs rot on the rear spring hangers spoils a good van. Mechanically good engines and gearbox. Hope you do well you deserve it.😁❤
Hi mate, thanks for watching and commenting, I use a product from auto smart called vinyl shield, sound a like I’m punting for you to watch more videos but if you look at my other video with the transit i go into more detail about that product. Thanks again!
@@tccarsales not bad miles for the years , managed to get a mk6 on an 03 about 5 years ago with 85k on it and 2 owners, 1 company for the first 3 years then the guy i got it from , needed new wing mirror backs pair from ebay £12 the pair and remove the blue company strip from the bottom of the panels ,no rot passed every mot since with no advisorys its a2.3 petrol with factory lpg so it costs 70p a litter to fill
I’ve never put a vehicle through an auction, this particular van had so much interest I could have sold 10 times over. Wish I could say the same for some of my other vehicles! Really quiet at the moment
@@tccarsales I used to buy and sell back in the mid 90's Id pretty much do the same as you, had a pal that would check over what I bought and repair what needed fixing then Id detail the car, people always buy with their eyes and a nice looking car will always sell. It was even possible back then to buy from one auction then sell in different auction. Changed days now what with people wanting every last detail off you now. Car market just now is still very exaggerated, love to know who's buying these overpriced cars.
@@G4RY1159 I have heard stories of people buying in one auction and driving to another and making money back in the day. I know what you mean wit the prices, I watch BCA sometimes and there are people paying retail money for everything and I wonder how they can then go an make money from it. It’s a funny game, I’m lucky I still have a full Time job to keep the bills being paid, don’t know if I could ever rely on sales to pay the bills!
@@tccarsales Nobody haggles now, I've been looking for a new car since B4 the Lockdowns. Audi A4 Estate or BMW 3 Series touring or C Class Mercedes, the prices after the Lockdowns are just silly, and that's for cars with well over 100k on the clock. Seen an Audi A4 online last night, 2014 Estate TFSi with 118k on the clock and they wanted 17k for it Not a chance in hell, that's just insane. Seen a nice Focus ST estate December last year near Aberdeen, I'm in Scotland myself, it was nice and advertised for 13k I asked if ANY room on the price ? A straight No!
@@G4RY1159 yes it’s hard because as a customer you want the best deal, but as someone selling a vehicle if you have prepped it right, as In service, MOT, wheels, detailing etc and it’s priced competitively there isn’t much reason to drop. I’ve had people say to me all the time “I’ve seen another one 100 miles away done 10,000 miles more and it’s £500 cheaper” so i politely say they should maybe view that one of there not happy with my one. On the other hand If people want to do a deal there and then I’m always happy to move the price to get a sale agreed, suppose it’s down to the margin in the vehicle and how strongly you believe the vehicle will sell. It’s a funny old game!
JUST STARTED WACHING THIS AND THE FIRST THING ID HAVE DONE IS GET IT INSPECTED AND IF YOU NEEDED TO TRADE IT OUT YOUD NOT BE WASTING TIME ON IT IF THE UNDERSIDE IS SHYT
Had mine 4 months 17 plate already had both front wheel bearings changed and alternator, next week changing wet belt, its a good job im a mechanic 😂😂😂😂 if you have no knowledge dont bother youll have empty pockets beleive me 👍
Why does everyone else in the whole world get a bargain and I always end up paying a fortune for a pos, that is about as much use as a Nigerian university degree!😂
Yes this one did seem fine, being company owned it had endless amounts of money thrown at it so any issues that did come along were fixed. Thanks for watching!
Hi Brian, thanks for advice, I only film the driving scene on private property where my site is based with a 5mph speed limit but thank you anyway. Hope you enjoyed the video 👍🏼
Andrew from Australia, The Mk 7 Ford Transit was a ripper of a van . We had a short wheel base Mk 7 from new in our painting & decorating business . The Mk 7 was built proof and it never let us down in the 5 years we owned our van , We trade in our Mk 7 for a new short wheel base Transit custom . We have had nothing but problem after problem with this van . Great video and it brings back a lot of memories of our Mk 7.
Andrew I also own 1 now 3 years no issues really and also like you spent alot of time in Australia and also like you have a painting decorating business both here and in Australia!
@@neilspeers5578 . Do you have any problems with getting staff / qualified painters and decorators. I think it’s the hardest thing running a painting business at the moment. Cheers for the message. Andrew

Great video, can I just say it’s a two owner van not one owner any original one owner vehicle will say zero owners on the logbook if it says 1 that means 2 and so on
Hi Mark, yes I’m fully aware one former keeper means that that is 2 in total, that’s why I was happy to show the logbook, it’s rare for a van of this age to have only 2 keepers from new, even though being company owned means it may have had lots of different drivers. Appreciate you watching the video and your comment. Thank you.

Ah thank you. I’m new to this so not really sure what people want to see. So I just film it all and put it on! Thanks for the feedback!
I've worked with this company before building BBC studios and Cardiff uni by the train Station. Seen this vans everyday.

Hey thanks for the comment. It did well in the end 👍🏼
Great job...what did you use on the bumber trims to bring back the grey colour?
Solution finish or byrat r1 are great products for use on restoring plastic trims
Hi thanks for the positive comment. It’s a product from auto smart, I’ll get the name of it in a bit, it’s a really good.
Great work lad what was used on the bumpers

definitely polished money into that transit it looks tidy , you did not mention how many miles it had done , hope you make good money on it
It had done 114k, yes it wasn’t the worst deal I’ve ever had! Thanks for watching and thanks for the positive feedback 👍🏼

Great job looks like different van just what I am looking for is it still for sale ?
I think it’s sold, being collected tomorrow! Thanks for the comment!
iv just replaced both steps in a transit sport mk7 , apparently is comon , iv had it 4 year the body kit makes them rot quick compared to a non sport
Sills will more than likely need welding Soon, just painted over the rust?
U needs a good moping will make it new and takes eats out and steam pressure wash them then use a wet and dry hover to suck water out
Hi mate thanks for the advice, always looking for tips on how to improve! Thanks for watching 👍🏼
In the market for one of these I’m 24 self employed joiner first van also so hopefully insurance isn’t that bad on these
Decent job fella
Sometimes the best place for a good return is a busy auction, play safe with a reserve on it, you'll know the score.

did you see it from the bottom as transit gets corrosion at the bottom and always problems at mot

@@tccarsales what is the millage and price please?
@@Chris-vc1dh it had done 114k miles but I’m afraid it’s sold!
How much did you sell the van for must have done £3500
It wasn’t far off, a friend of mine bought it in the end and was happy to good money for it as he knew it was a nice van. Thanks
How much did it sell for?
Hi, it did ok, not sure it covered the hours spent cleaning but I enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
