Finding cheap vans is easy

As I have just watched 2 mechanics pull the TDCI lump from a 2007 transit in 2 hours I think you need to get your spanners out and fix yours.
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

my old vans a suffering from terminal rot, bald tyres, questionable brakes, knackered door locks, side door falls of when opened & wont start in frosty weather etc etc all due to 10 years of neglect/abuse....im waiting to win the lottery so i can have it restored....
as for the ford osi thing ive not seen one either but someone on here is bound to know what it is.. if you decide to buy it pop in for a cuppa.

OK so now I know what it is!
I suspect that they are all LHD and too expensive for me!

A grand for that Granny? Even with the rarity I'm not sure it's worth it in that state!
