For the second year running, Ford has been selected as Most Reliable Van Manufacturer Overall and Most Reliable Model and the Ford Transit Connect was awarded second place as Most Reliable Model by trade magazine Fleet News.
The Ford Transit, promoted as "the backbone of Britain", came top of an industry reliability survey based on more than 150,000 commercial vehicles. With an additional runner-up award for the Ford Transit Connect, Ford took the title as the Most Reliable Manufacturer.
Steve Kimber, commercial vehicles director, Ford Britain, said: "It is fantastic to see British businesses giving recognition to the vans that get the job done. Transit and its sibling, Connect, deliver a great ownership experience due to their low running costs, durability and reliability."
The survey, conducted by Fleet News, is based on feedback from multitudes of fleet vehicles and is the largest survey of its kind in the world.
