The Ford Transit is a range of panel vans, minibuses, and pickup trucks, produced by the Ford Motor Company in Europe.

The Transit has been the best-selling light commercial vehicle in Europe for 40 years, and in some countries the term "Transit" has passed into common usage as a generic term applying to any light commercial van in the Transit's size bracket.

Although the Transit name has been in use by Ford since 1953, the first definitive Transit platform was launched in 1965. Since then, six million Transits have been produced across three basic platforms (first debuting in 1965, 1986 and 2001, resepctively), with several "facelift" versions of each. The six millionth van was built in March 2010.

The Ford Supervan 3, essentially an ordinary Ford Transit with a hugely powerful engine bolted into the back of it. According to the commentary on the day, well what we heard of it anyway, it has a Le Mans engine, but after googling it, it has an F1 engine which produces 650bhp. The chassis was from the Ford C100 Race car and the engine is mid mounted.

Ford Transit Connect X-Press & Renault Sport Megane Driven by Tiff Needell race against the clock. What would result from the unlikely "marriage" of a low-roof, highly practical Ford Transit Connect van with the power unit and brakes from Ford's high-performance, top-of-the-range, Focus RS? The answer is the 'vantastic' Transit Connect X-Press - the fastest and most dramatic version of Ford's tough and highly versatile small commercial to hit the tarmac. Lower (by up to 70 mm), meaner (with 18-inch OZ alloys) and emitting an exhaust note more akin to that of Ford's Focus RS in World Rally Championship trim, X-Press is an undeniably special Transit Connect. Even if you fail to spot the integral, "race-spec" roll cage fitted inside this one-off vehicle, it would be almost impossible to ignore the pearlescent white paint job set off with tri-colour X-Press graphics. Extrovert? Most definitely -- but not over the top!
