Short-wheelbase, mid-height Ford Transit minibuses were less unusual than vans of that size. Indeed almost all Transit minibuses operated during the Mk3/4/5 era were mid-height, regardless of length. 4900F was a short-wheelbase Mk5 used by London Buses for passenger surveys. It carried an all white livery, although similar 5017F, delivered a few months later for the same department, was in red/orange. The headlight washers, more prominent on the Mk5 Transit, were specified on most minibuses but very rarely on vans, perhaps due to regulatory requirements. |
