these are the 7 transits, or 8, if you include the different front on a diesel mk1. Transit Mk1 (petrol)  Transit Mk1 (diesel)  Transit Mk2  Transit Mk3 (the design spanned 3 different 'mks', and about 15 years). Around 1986  Transit Mk4 (the front's a bit different including the lights) Around 1992  Transit Mk5 (obvious grille change and rear corner black grille additions). Around 1998   Transit Mk6  Transit Mk7  |

so the usual ford trick of claiming it's a whole new model when all they have done is modified 3 bis of trim.

If you look, the Mk7 is a heavily modified Mk6. It looks totally different, but look at the back end. Mk6  Mk7 |

Mk 3 is the one isn't it.  although the 4, and 5 don't deserve their own mark really. I like the 6 it looks like a transit, the mk7 reminds me of the new Land Rover Disco  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Does the Taunus Transit count? No. That would be the equivalent of the Mk1. Although perhaps older. It isn't a proper transit. |

Not the first time, either....  vs.  IIRC the original Disco was described as 'a heavily glazed transit'... probably by clarkson.... |

Yeah, skitting the poor thing!! ;D I remember when he described a hill-shy Lada as a 'communist piece of junk'!!  Anyway, I see the resemblance betweek a Transit Mk1 and the discovery. It's the front lights and indicators!! ;D |

Called a Transit? check QED, it's a ford transit. Next thing you'll be setting up a special club, just for Transits built between 12th of december 1985 and 30th April 1987 (STRICTLY ORIGINAL CONDITION ONLY - NO MODIFICATIONS), just like all those other Ford loonies who set up 'splinter clubs' to fight between each other with 5 members each....  |

So you agree, thank God, it wasn't a tested theory! I need an early Disco at some time in 3 door for extra cool points
