To mark the 45th birthday of the legendary Transit van, Fork UK released a special edition called the Sapphire. This version of Britain’s best-selling van is powered by a 2.2L 115PS Euro 4 TDCi engine mated to a 6-speed transmission which also had 300 Nm of torque. It has 20,000 mile service intervals and starting from £14,995, it’s only £295 more than the last celebration model in 2005, the Transit “Hallmark”.
