Mc T Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hi, To write in English, that's not a talent of me, i'm from Holland will try my best. A new owner, second time a Ford. A view years ago I owned a Transit, rear wheel drive L2/H2, I loved this van with his strong turbo gasoline engine. Bud I stopped with my company so the Transit had to go. Now several years later I found a Transit Connect 2004 in very good condition. The first owner, he used this Connect only for transporting his two racing bycicles(!?) It reminded me of my ' big Transit', that one was also almost like new when I found it. My Connect is powered by a 1.8 16v zetec. I did some mods: RS wheels 17 inch 225/45/R17 Striping applied Rusty rear bumper refurbished and painted silver Backup sensors Smoked winddeflectors (not that nice bud no AC, very usefull)Tinted rear windows limo black foil,Mod to the air intake for a nice engine sound. Tow hitch installed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mc T Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 Thank you all for your kind reply. There where a lot of wrapfoils and colors to chose from. I liked the color of this foil, a nice contrast with the silver paint. And also the gloss, not to much gloss. It's 3M 1080 wrapseries number 1080-G201. I ordered white side indicators and chroom bulbs, also a set for the indicators in the headlights. The only parts on my wish list is a 6000 radio with CD and the original roof spoiler, that last item is a problem to find I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For factory look, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mc T Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 I have a history in car sound and pro audio, once i start with upgrading the sound system i now i can't until there is only space left in the front seats ;-) There is now a cassetplayer combo in the dash and that's just a little bid to vintage for me. And yes, factory looks with the advantage that they never will smash a window to rip it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
