2021 Ford Transit review | Edd China's in-depth review | What Car?

[@sakk1192]

I Don’t even care about vans. You see Ed and one has to watch.

[@rabity]

Edd not Ed. Get it right homie its a name!

[@christineayres7094]

Yeah he made Wheeler Dealers a popular show , without him that show would never have had 13 seasons

[@markjulian2037]

Me too.

[@dean1834]

What Car well done getting Edd reviewing motors the man is quality.

[@carolcooks1208]

You are missed from tv, you are a natural presenter

[@swampthing20]

"I'm about 20% bigger than your average man". If Ed didn't use that as a chat up line in his younger days then I'll be very disappointed.

[@TheAegisClaw]

@falchulk they're the size of a jockey in their width, usually.

[@andrewdrabble8939]

I don't need a van myself but I watched this with the utmost pleasure. Go Edd

[@richardmiller8028]

Great to see you presenting again Ed, you’ve been sorely missed mate.

[@MrPoldekrosmol]

Why am I watching my third video in a row about vans from Edd? I got a deskjob with no need in any way for a van!

[@haidersohail1649]

Love to see Ed back on the scene. What Car I hope you treat him well. He is a masterpiece

[@brianmcmanus4430]

Great to see Edd again. A breath of fresh air.

[@anaitali8256]

May i say what an honour and a pleasure it is to see Mr China on the screen. A knowledgeable and highly respected engineer who is a naturally gifted presenter. Sincere, clear and concise delivery, in short, a master of his profession. Thank you Mr China, not only do we appreciate your knowledge, we are grateful that you share it with us.

[@melgrant7404]

Good to see you Edd a real mechanic and teacher of mechanics. Want to see you get your own show

[@patconway7402]

Great review from Edd, great to see him back giving us tons of useful advice.

[@459HAMED]

I'm only watching this cause edd is in it

[@Iveraghboy]

made in Turkey, formally Southampton moved to Turkey for cheaper labour putting Brit workers out of a job.

[@timmynator2002]

Yep, and the entire thing was subsidised by the EU.

[@mickaparrish]

very good review, ALSO GOOD TO SEE EDD, very much missed on our tv screens

[@andyt1048]

Nice to see Edd back, don't need a Van but may watch these now. Think I've seen all of Edd's Wheeler Dealer re-runs 10 times now but can't watch the new one.

[@carolcooks1208]

Love you edd, ya big legend.

[@Poncho202]

What a treat for my Sunday afternoon

[@dazsid100]

Watching only due to Edd. Keep up the great work

[@Tnenamrep2]

It's great to see Edd back on the air. :)

[@bayareanewman1566]

Edd!! I’m glad I found you here! Now I’ve got to watch your videos! Looks like you moved back to the UK! I’m a big fan since wheeler dealers!

[@QALibrary]

have they updated the design flaw - the one where it was so simple to break into it and disable the alarm/immobiliser at the same time it was so easy to drive it away insurance companies where not even giving quotes or cover to a lot of users or in certain parts of the UK?

[@kinstar]

No probably not lol

[@petelattimer6808]

immobilisers are vastly improved over the 1990s models yes.

[@Beariam24]

I would love to have the transit but the thing that is stopping me is the roof night, if you google the transit in the USA it has a very low roof line. I wish they had it over here I’d have one straight away. So the next best option is the crafter?!? love having Ed doing these Van videos great stuff 👍🏼

[@professormcgorgeous]

6:48 Very familiar sight in the rear view mirror 😂

[@Thinker669]

We have the Ford Transit here in America. I sometimes drive a Transit 250 that's either 2WD or AWD with a 3.5 Liter gas (Petrol) V6. The medium wheel base with the medium rooftop. I believe it's 9 feet in clearance.

[@Qspecialman]

Another excellent review Edd. Thanks for your time.

[@VDPEFi]

Love the shirt Edd! Can you get on some car reviews too? More than enough experience to show some helmsmith journos what matters!

[@goldenretriever6440]

Here’s probably a dumb question but How do those vans not tip over all the time I mean if it gets loaded up with boxes it seems like a light breeze would knock it over

[@BigGent22]

Glad to see you again Edd. Was getting sick of That Matt Watson..

[@sebgrabowski]

Good to see you again Edd :-)

[@sirfulham]

Great review Edd, always liked the transit. Also be interested in seeing reviews of campers and motor homes if you are able to.

[@sweetfreedomGB]

Agree with your comments but not the nasty flag

[@dylanwilliams2438]

Ed is the best keep him on give him cars to do as well

[@dickyknees4123]

Good to see you Edd. Oh, and your review was as expected from you👍

[@paultaylor9652]

Lovely Jubbly Edd, you can understand every word and clearly.

[@stanirelandbig]

Ed is the man , better than WD usa , such a lovely presenter , I hope he gets his own show , mike free

[@bigred8438]

I have been trying to have one of these (a 2021 year model), delivered to me in Australia having put the deposit down in April. The delivery date was going to be August then it was going to be Oct now it is February next year 2022. I have decided to opt for something else. Something that is already here in the country...... an LDV deliver 9 LWB high roof in pacific blue, for about $15,000 less than the equivalent Transit.

[@vizpop18]

welcome back edd china.

[@TrailVapor]

where is the speed sensor located on the 6sp RWD transmission on Ford Transit LWB 2012 T155 2.2L? Van goes into limp mode at 40mph with TCS dash light flashing. Diagnosed as wiring/faulty VSS, because (when goes into limp mode) all 4 wheel speed sensors report speed but VSS reports no data (0 mph).

[@dazsly]

How’s the engine seizing issue?

[@CasioMaker]

Aaah, the Ford Transit. A common sight nowadays in southern Chile due to its usage by local tour operators. Stop by the Petrohue River Waterfalls in the middle not the summer season and you’re bound to find at least 5 to 7 parked nearby in between older Sprinters, Boxers and Hyundai’s H1

[@zachiyenonyosef5396]

Im not into vans but I like Edd so yeah great video

[@Oli_Hudson]

Custom review please!

[@SuperLEEEDWARDS]

Hi Edd , i am soo happy for you getting this job with what car-van, You see your fans/viewers have come to trust you and your no bullshit Character, If you say something is good then it;s good. Even when you were reviewing the Transit you did mention the lack of pockets for pens etc and pointed out that if you were to leave them out in the open [top of dash pockets] everyone could see them, not trying to cause any friction but if that was brewer he would most likely have glossed over that trying to earn brown [nose] points with the Manufactures but not you, STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND YOUR FANS Edd your going FAR best wishes SCOOBS Wales.

[@MrRuadhriaherne]

Edd ya legend. Please keep up the van reviews not enough out there and most reviewers are pants.

[@paulbreen8350]

Nearly broke your iPhone in that door pocket there Edd, did ford do anything about the security yet?

[@stuartcraigon2003]

No chance! Theres instructions on here on breaking into these with a set grips!

[@benmakepeace5759]

Errr biggest question of all has not been addressed. Is the chassis and body panels been galvanized or is it going to rust away in 10years time.

[@petelattimer6808]

all vans rust away faster than cars. its because they try to keep the cost of manufacture down. but having rust treatment like waxoyl carried out periodically costs very little.

[@Sheehy223]

How is it that they sell these with a manual in Europe, and we can't even get one in the Shelby GT500?

[@PaulL42654]

Everything is manual over here!

[@Stop..carry-on]

Funny cause it’s taken the last 20 years for us to get an auto option on the transit

[@petelattimer6808]

@@Stop..carry-on transit has had option of auto for YEARS. even the Smiley transit (and possibly earlier) had the option BUT nobody really wanted them!

[@hugolafhugolaf]

Those headlights look great. Wish we could have a manual version in North America.

[@alancobbin1310]

Transit is Still the king of the road ,nice one Edd 👍😊

[@robloxfan4271]

Edd is so good wish he was back on wheeler dealers

[@leoollier3280]

roblox fan same

[@majorfeelgoodrecords2740]

The transit van wins all the awards in Australia, but no one buys them because they keep breaking down

[@PXCBIKES]

Isn't the Transit a legend van I have owned mine for 11 years and it has never left me stranded never broken down 👌

[@chewchew74]

Just curiosity how did you get your last name’China’?

[@pepsi431]

Why aren't there two seats on the passenger side in United States?

[@Thecrazyvaclav]

I'm sceptical on the mpg claims,my 69 plate 16 seat minibus only manages 28mpg at best,averages 22mpg even when empty

[@jrsuk1170]

Which is the van in the video?

[@MrJerry1902]

What about particulate filters

[@Mark-M72]

lol, i cant believe i'm watching this, i don't drive a van and i don't need a van but with Edd telling me all about it i just can stop :-P

[@AN-vt3kl]

hey Ed, you told all good bits about ford transit but you forgot to mention about vans which are not so good as stated at the beginning of the video! thanks

[@sirrustalots]

It's edd!!! Right I'm subscribing! Whatcar - give him a payrise.

[@jamiep61]

Great Video Review.

[@bradleyfrancis6736]

Edd, you never mention about reliability, they were meant to be quite bad, is this true??.

[@timleaning6695]

Any idea what a model/series 350 can tow please

[@bigred8438]

How big are you? 6'7"?

[@RM-iu6mm]

Need more videos with Ed!

[@earnmister]

Can’t wait to see the future reliably scores!

[@user-um5bo7vo5d]

Only reason I clicked on this...Edd,miss your show,wheeler dealers no comparison now sir.

[@Kampup]

Have any transit got air conditioning in the front cab?

[@jopdispa1134]

You guys better have videos of Edd reviewing the Renault Master, Fiat Ducato, and Peugeot Boxer coming up.

[@DinKnight]

I only clicked because Edd was in the thumbnail

[@syncrosimon]

So good to see you fella😎😎

[@robwatson1801]

Edd - brilliant to see you doing this. A long way from Cummfy Banana!

[@jasonmclaughlin-earley8368]

Could you do a review on the Renault

[@nathanpetrovski7525]

What’s the difference between the chassis cab and the crew cab variance?

[@petelattimer6808]

crew cab is a pre built vehicle with rear body on. chassis cab you buy the cab and chassis (in whatever size/cab type you choose) and add a body aftermarket. ideal for camper vans, horse boxes, recovery trucks (subject to weight limits) etc.

[@MBAKERY92]

i wonder what is the edd china dreams car or cars

[@bobbya4579]

Edd China should also review cars and suv's also.

[@theshadowman1398]

Edd is so much fun

[@darrenFN3K12]

Hopefully the engines don’t run out of steam all of a sudden. My work has A LOT of 2018 290 transits, I’ve driven 3 of them and not happy with engine performance, they run out of steam just after 2,000rpm, it’s diabolical when your trying to speed upto 70mph.

[@petelattimer6808]

the last one i had was a 350 with the 125 bhp engine and it was quicker than the 115bhp diesel C max a friend had at the time. its possible that your work has had the engine restricted to prevent drivers thrashing them (i believe that, or speed limiters at least, is a factory option) as companies are increasingly having done to save fuel etc.

[@podamis314]

Is it possible to achieve 40.9 MPG ? Is ~30 typical ?

[@danielchanoch]

yes of course it is...but you have to keep its engine off

[@DanielSchmidt94521]

Thanks friend. I subscribed. I’m looking at a new Ford Transit.

[@archechme]

With vans like this going around, it's hard to imagine why people still buy the antiquated renault master. The new one can't come soon enough.

[@archechme]

@mipmipmipmipmip The ones I drive are just like that. The one I drive the most has a sticky spot between reverse and neutral and just sticks there

[@petelattimer6808]

@mipmipmipmipmip last time i was in a Renault master the gearbox was exactly as you describe............from day 1! we were told they were all like that. and every one we were given to try for ourselves WAS

[@akhilmuraleedhar5042]

Please upload a 10sec video of ed keeping the phone in the holder on the door and simultaneously closing the door without picking it up first. Can you do that BTW? Anyone?

[@petelattimer6808]

thats why there was a sticker on the door which was mentioned in the video saying its NOT for your phone!

[@MartinLV.]

You are average Larvian guy height. Nice van, the wall behind drivers seat should be at last 10cm further in storsge area.

[@tyrannyterminator4179]

You need to make just Edd China searchable for the video.

[@clintmullins4406]

With the 3.5 twin turbo v6 and a limited slip you don’t put a hammer in that shelf over your head. My wife is not too fond of that stuff up there hitting her in the face.

[@tactical_philanthropy]

Why doesn't Ford have automatic shift in Europe?

[@alexascs2679]

Ed, Ford and What Car! I Love The New Transit sm AsF!👌🏿This is Fresh as Ever! And I Love all My Vans, Minibuses and HGV's too, Keep up the good work!👍🏿🙏🏿🙌🏿

[@christineayres7094]

That Transit would be a perfect camper conversion, much better option than renting a room

[@jomama01]

Where can we see spec sheet and price for this vehicle?

[@baronvonteuchter1412]

Patrick Borden Ford website?

[@gerrydays1909]

Got love the transit😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍

[@westwindsailer]

HEADS UP...3:56 to 4:03.. that great "non cellphone pocket" has people putting their phones in it..even though its not for a phone. look at the paper folding in it when the door is closed ..crunch!

[@johngudmundson9975]

Need u back on tv Ed!

[@micstonemic696stone]

as an ex White van man it's not just load, drive we always had some breaks lunch or shelter from English weather so putting food etc down was useful

[@ASTMA193]

Nice one Edd.

[@andrewnuttall333]

Surprised at your comment that you think the Mercedes is quieter (and smoother)as we build camper-vans in both the Transit and Mercedes and we find the Transit always smoother and quieter before any work started on them!

[@Blackfoxparadox]

Love the gushing over Edd but some of us come here to read comments about vans strangely enough

[@Massimilianop]

I need an EDD FACTOR t-shirt in my life!

[@kirstysinclair9021]

I’m surprised he didn’t diagnose discs and pads all around .

[@TEACHER0786]

Awesome vlog ❤

[@alexandruatanasiu7085]

Tourneo Custom, pretty please?
