Ford’s Transit van (and the smaller Transit Custom) nails the tradie brief without feeling like a punishment to drive.
The 2.0‑litre turbo‑diesel is frugal and torquey, and the chassis feels more car‑like than most big boxes on wheels.
You get a modern cabin with big‑screen infotainment, heaps of driver‑assist tech (AEB, lane‑keeping, adaptive cruise on many specs), and a spread of lengths, roof heights and payloads to suit the job.
Unladen ride can jiggle, options and packs add up quickly, and parking a long‑wheelbase in suburbia is… character building.
As a work tool that won’t break your back or your brain, it’s one of the smarter picks in Australia’s van game.
