When growing up the Ford Transit van seemed to have cornered the market and was used by all manner of businesses to transport goods. Like this minibus here they were also popular for transporting small groups. I travelled in one on many occasions to and from school cross country meetings.
Given that they were produced in huge numbers from 1966 I am surprised that no older models are seen on our roads. This one which looks like a particularly early example was photographed in the streets of Nicosia.
The city of Nicosia sits on the border between Cyprus and Turkish influenced Northern Cyprus. There is a huge difference in the infrastructure between the two halves of the city. This view was taken in one of the more orderly streets of the northerly half of the city.

Green 23 was part of a class of ship regarded as the Ford Transit van of space. Reliable, economic and ubiquitous; these spacecraft were found doing a variety of jobs across the galactic disc. Both cargo and passenger carrying versions were built.
The ship's semi-annular wing gave good atmospheric performance. Its Whatt & Pritney main engine gave plenty of thrust to boost loads of cargo into orbit of most major planets.

This ship was inspired by a painting by Angus Mckie that I first saw back in the 1980s, in a Terran Trade Authority book in my school library.

We had these two vehicles to carry us and our bikes from region to region, uplifts, and for support in case of mechanical/medical emergencies, or just simply tired legs and/or shot nerves.

Although officially the Mk.1 Transit the first Ford Transit were was in fact a Cologne built van of 1961-65 though not widely exported.
The Mark 1 was introduced ito the UK market in October 1965 taking over directly from the Thames 400E. The van was produced initially at Ford's Langley facility in Berkshire, The van was produced initially at Ford's Langley facility in Berkshire, but as demand outstripped supply production was moved to Southampton until closure in 2013 in favour of the Turkish factory. Transits were also produced at Ford plants in Genk, Belgium and in Amsterdam, Holland.
The Transit was a departure from the European commercial vehicles of the day with its American-inspired styling—its broad track gave it a huge advantage in carrying capacity which was highlighted in early advertising campaigns showing a Transit van delivering an Elephant. The engines used in the UK were the Essex V4 for the petrol-engined version in 1.7 L and 2.0 L capacities. By using relatively short V-4 engines Ford were able to minimise the additional length necessitated to place the engine ahead of the driver Diesel engine sourced from Perkins was also offered. As this engine was too long to fit under the Transit's stubby nose, the diesel version featured a longer bonnet, The diesel version's long nose front was also used to accommodate the Ford 3.0 L Ford Essex V6 engine (UK) for high performance applications such as vans supplied to police and ambulance services. The underpowered Perkins proved unpopular, and was replaced by Ford's own "York" unit in 1974.

A nostalgic image of a Ford Transit police van overtaking a number 77 bus on a North Manchester road. We think the date of the image is probably sometime in the early 1970s.
The early models of the Ford Transit were a regular feature of numerous police vehicle fleets for many years.
The pedestrian on the right of the image is clearly intrigued as to what the photographer is recording.
The image has little in the way of a caption and so we have no idea why the photograph was taken but we are sure it will bring back memories to many local people.
Did you remember riding the 77 bus during this period?

29-8-2024 - Metropolitan Police, Ford Transit (BX22 AYO - LJF).
Seen on the Southern Perimeter Road at Heathrow.
Intended as a replacement for the very long-lasted Ford E-Series/Econoline, the Transit itself is actually a very old name - outside of North America, it has been around since 1965. Ford previously separated its van offerings between North America and the rest of the planet, but with the introduction of the Transit to the North American market in 2013 this practice was officially ended - Ford now sells the Transit worldwide, and this fourth generation was actually specifically engineered with the North American market in mind.
The venerable E-Series actually still persists alongside the new Transit in North America, but only as a cutaway/chassis offering.

Forgotten from a week ago now. not sure if it's one of my greatest but still happy with it! would of liked the van in better focus and not to have shot through a heated windscreen lol
Officers of Greater Manchester Police’s Bolton Division began a weekend of high profile policing by serving warrants at the homes of suspected offenders this morning (3/12/2010).
Residents from across Bolton are also invited to come and meet their local Policing Team this Saturday 4 December.
Officers from each Neighbourhood Policing Team will be at four key locations across the borough, giving people the opportunity to come and speak to them about any issues they may be experiencing in their communities and receive advice on how they can stay safe this Christmas.
There will also be officers from GMP’s mounted unit patrolling in some areas, as well as traffic cars offering kids the opportunity to see what it’s like inside a police vehicle and the chance for them to have their fingerprints taken.
Officers from the Bolton Central Neighbourhood Policing Team will be on Victoria Square between 11am and 2pm, where the GMP Band (made up of volunteers) will also be playing to get people into the festive spirit. Youth services and the fire service will also be in attendance.
Officers from the Bolton South team will be outside Asda at Brackley Street in Farnworth between 10am and 2pm, where representatives from the Fire Service and military units will also be present.
Officers in Horwich will be at the Asda at Middlebrook and officers from the East area will be outside Asda on Blackburn Road, Moss Bank Way between 10am and 3pm.
Throughout December, police will be stepping up activities to target a wide range of crimes in the lead up to the festive period, including burglary, vehicle crime and anti-social behaviour. There have been significant reductions in crime across Bolton over the past couple of years and police are keen to ensure it stays that way.
From April to date this year, antisocial behaviour has dropped in Bolton by more than 20 per cent compared to the same period for last year, which means 3,387 fewer people have experienced any issues.
Superintendent Nadeem Butt from Greater Manchester Police’s Bolton Division said: “Over the coming weeks, we tend to see a predicted seasonal increase in criminal activity such as burglary, vehicle crime and other criminal offences. Additional operations are in place to target these criminals and ensure we make Christmas a miserable time for them, whilst also ensuring we provide any victims with a high quality service from the police.
“This Saturday, I would encourage people to come and visit their local officers and speak to them about any issues they are experiencing in their neighbourhoods. These officers are dedicated to working within Bolton’s communities and with other agencies to help resolve local problems.
“We are also keen to encourage people to look after themselves and their families this December. Neighbourhood officers will be handing out crime prevention materials and advising people on how to keep their valuables safe and homes secure.”
Twitter will also be used to communicate crime prevention messages on the day.
To report crime call police on 0161 872 5050 or for more information visit www.gmp.police.uk. You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
