Vehicle Review: Ford Transit Custom Limited

The Ford Transit Custom has been a success from the minute it was launched. Proudly claiming the title of the best-selling van in the UK, the Ford Transit Custom has only been around since 2012 – but in that time, it’s made a huge impression in the mid-size van industry.

With each generation, the Ford Transit Custom becomes more and more luxurious. While the Transit originally offered just two trim levels, there are now four available – and knowing which one is best suited to your needs is key. These days, it’s not just enough to know the difference between models; it’s important to know the difference between the trims too. .

At Van Sales UK, we understand that working out what each version of a van includes can be overwhelming. For example, how do you know the difference between a Transit Custom ‘Trend’ and a Transit Custom ‘Limited’? With a choice of four trim levels – Base, Trend, Limited and Sport – there’s a lot of options available. Depending on which trim level you opt for, you’ll notice some refined changes.

Below, we’ve put together a quick vehicle review of the Ford Transit Custom Limited and what you need to know.

Ford Transit Custom Limited

Drivers often describe the Limited as having a premium feel to it. With the exception of Sport, the Limited is Ford’s top-end specification. It features a chrome skirting around the grille along with body coloured mouldings, bumpers, handles and mirrors, as well as 16 inch alloy wheels – so you could say it’s a good-looking van to say the least.

Equipped with the powerful Euro6, 2.0-litre, EcoBlue Diesel engine, the Ford Transit Custom has plenty of power and is a pleasure to drive. Described as the ultimate stylish workhorse, it can carry a weighty 850kg – and it’s safe to say that the Transit Custom is both comfortable and functional. With a big windscreen and secondary headlights, it seems the Custom was built with convenience in mind.

What features are added with the Limited?

The Limited specification includes Air Con, parking sensors, cruise, DAB radio, Bluetooth and extended under passenger seat storage length as standard. In addition, if you treat yourself to the Limited trim, you’ll also benefit from USB connectivity, remote audio controls, four front speakers and a dual front passenger seat which transforms into a fold-out table.

If that’s not enough, you’ll also be pleased to know that the Limited features heated front seats for those frosty mornings, front passenger’s airbag with a deactivation switch and a load area protection kit.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"First time leasing with Vanaways, but have leased before. Initial contact was with Justin, who found the van I need very quickly at a competitive price. No hard sell, and seamless. Yasmine completed the admin and arranged delivery. Great service from both. Follow up calls to see if I was satisfied with van. Professional and efficient, would highly recommend."

"I recently bought a new car from this company and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Tyler and Steve C were both brilliant to deal with – friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. They took the time to answer all my questions and made everything straightforward and stress-free. The customer service was excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. Both Tyler and Steve C really went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted and that I was happy with the car. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would definitely buy from them again in the future. Thanks again for such a great experience!"
