Econoline
Introduced almost as a direct competitor to the VW Transporter, the American built and designed E-Series Econoline goes down as one of my favourite people carriers. It was initially introduced as a van, but sold well as an 8 seater bus. I suspect that it would have also sold reasonably well in Europe, if it was given the correct marketing and sales channels, but at the time both Ford UK and Germany operated on different levels and I suspect domestic built vehicles would have been the priority. Subsequent versions of the Econoline, following typical American trends, grew in size with every generation but is still a popular choice in the states, particularly as goods and service vehicles.
