forum_emoticons.html	[quote=dsl,86090]For Transits, I think there's reasonable agreement for: - Mk1-3 UK origin - Mk4 uncertain UK or EU could be used - my preference is UK, but not a clear decision either way - Mk5-6 EU origin - US-made Transits (no Mk used) can keep US origin All made-ins to remain as they are. And spin-offs Transit Tourneo/Custom etc not discussed so far, so to remain as they are. For non-Transits, I don't think we're collectively ready to change big block decisions. AleX-DJ's list has too much to absorb quickly, but is an excellent starting point for discussion. Would need line-by-line confirmation; however what we do at the moment works despite the wrinkles, and no-one's really too concerned.[/quote]

Updated. For the mk4 it was then easier to say "Ford Tourneo MkIV" without specifying the years :wink:

JB007

For "1995-1999 Ford Tourneo MkIII" and this.
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_926079-Ford-Tourneo.html
Origin is "UK".

For "2000-2006 Ford Tourneo MkIV" except this.
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1734429-Ford-Tourneo-2000.html
Origin is "Europe".

Maybe an old mk3 quickly repainted for the movie then? We can list it as mk3 by default...

Sandie

I'm wondering if they did something that kept the MK3 going as that looks like late MK3 seats. But the rest isn't really familiar to me from UK market Transit cab chassis.

I've done something with 1-3 on Sandie's list. No idea about 4, but may be a painted over Ford oval on the tailgate. His comment above copied over.

antp

I would guess that the last one is probably a mk4 or mk5, since it seems rather new. There seem to be many Transit in Turkey so probably a good bet anyway :grin:

Sandie

Tidied what I can, apart from these:
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1726451-Ford-Transit.html (think MK2?)
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_293277-Ford-Transit.html (unsure whether MK1 or MK2)
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_957975-Ford-Transit.html (unsure whether MK1 or MK2)
https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1591254-Ford-Transit.html (not even convinced this is a Transit)

antp

I've done some cleaning for the easy ones, but if someone could help identifying (or guessing) the 13 ones without mk/year, that would help :smile:

Same for these 3 first ambulances without mk:

Sorted (I think) - EY02KTL is a Mk4 with several appearances over the years during which strange things happen

Quote From: SM99

No they all the same @dsl, they hacked job the front with a more Modern one. Another example see top comment, https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_774291-Ford-Transit-2001.html

So there are early sightings with Mk4 front, and then it gets the incorrect Mk5 front. As SM99 linked, same seems to have happened with 2001 Transit LF51LHG - see comments in the Silent Witness page he linked - mains on other pages are normal where front is seen.
