Ford Top Reliability League
Ford & Transit Take Top Honours
Vanguard - The Transit & Ford Top The Ratings!
Vansdirect has already asked why we love the transit, but this week, we’ve found another reason. The “backbone of Britain” is appareantly “the most reliable van on the market” according to Fleet News.
Their FN50 reliability survey included more than 100,000 vans operated by British fleets and assessed the reliability of both the manufacturer and model. The table is based on “the number of breakdowns per 100 of each vehicle on the fleet.”
Ford dominated the rankings with the Ford Transit and Ford Transit Connect taking first and second respectively in the model category. The Vauxhall Astravan pipped stiff competition to third with the Mercedes-Benz Vito and Toyota Hiace in joint fourth.
The manufacturer table looked very similar with Ford leading the way. Behind Ford, Mercedes-Benz came in 2nd, with Vauxhall 3rd, Volkwagen 4th and Toyota 5th.
For a great deal on the Ford Transit, or any of the other vans listed (or not), why not visit Vansdirect.co.uk and speak to one of our experts.
