As above, is it same engine g/box flywheel as mk7 ? I need a new can and have been hanging on for the mk8 because of the amount of DMF that fuck up on the mk7 . Also do they do a lwb high roof as everyone Ive seen when driving past ford have had low roofs . Cheers

Doesn't look like there will be hi roof at the mo,
It's called the transit custom, afaik it's going to be sold alongside the mk7 for the time being, looks like its only available in short or long wheel base with low roof

Yeh I thought that was the case, probably have a load of mk7 to get rid of first. Looks a nice van but pointless test driving low roof as drives totally different to 3.5ton

They did a conversion kit to do away with the DMF. They just fail under load, majority seem to be around 70k
