At David Spear Commercial Vehicles, we know a van needs to do more than simply get from A to B. For many businesses, it’s a mobile workspace, a daily companion and, increasingly, a reflection of the company behind it.
That’s why this month’s featured vehicle is something a little special.
Introducing our Ford Transit Custom 280 Limited 136PS RS Edition, finished in stunning Artisan Red and showing just over 300 miles on the clock. With one owner from new, this is a vehicle that offers all the benefits and condition of a nearly new van — but without the wait or the price tag of ordering brand new.
A Transit Custom — But Not As You Know It
The Ford Transit Custom has long been one of the UK’s favourite commercial vehicles. It has built its reputation on practicality, reliability and versatility. But this RS Edition takes things to another level.
Straight away, you notice this isn’t a standard Transit.
The DSCV Exclusive styling package transforms the appearance with upgraded RS-inspired enhancements including striking 20-inch gloss black alloy wheels, a honeycomb grille, side skirts, rear spoiler, roof rails, custom decal pack and gloss black detailing throughout. Together they create a van with a much more aggressive, premium and sporty road presence.
For businesses wanting a vehicle that makes a statement, this delivers exactly that.
Performance Built for Everyday Business
Under the bonnet sits Ford’s reliable and efficient 2.0-litre EcoBlue 136PS diesel engine paired with an automatic gearbox, giving you smooth and responsive performance whether you’re navigating city streets, travelling between sites or covering longer motorway journeys.
The Transit Custom has earned its reputation as a dependable workhorse and this setup balances practicality with comfort, offering the performance businesses need without compromising efficiency.
And because it’s Euro 6 compliant, it’s ready for low-emission zones and future fleet requirements too.
A Cabin Designed Around Comfort
Spend hours each week behind the wheel and comfort quickly becomes more important than people realise.
Step inside and this RS Edition continues to impress.
The upgraded RS leather seats immediately elevate the interior feel, while heated front seats and Ford’s heated front windscreen make those early morning starts much more enjoyable during colder months.
Air conditioning helps maintain comfort year-round and features including cruise control, push-button start and multifunction controls all contribute to a driving experience that feels much more premium than many expect from a commercial vehicle.
Technology That Makes Life Easier
Modern commercial vehicles are increasingly becoming technology hubs, and this Transit Custom is no exception.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto allow seamless smartphone integration, while DAB radio and Bluetooth connectivity keep you connected on the move.
Practical technology is equally important too.
Front and rear parking sensors combined with a reversing camera make manoeuvring easier in tighter spaces, helping reduce stress when parking or working in busy environments.
These are features that make a noticeable difference every single day.
Nearly New Without the New Vehicle Cost
One of the standout aspects of this vehicle is the mileage.
At just over 300 miles, opportunities like this rarely stay around for long. It offers buyers the chance to own a virtually new Transit Custom RS Edition while avoiding the premium and lead times often associated with factory ordering.
Priced at £28,990 plus VAT, it represents exceptional value for a vehicle with this specification, condition and presence.
Van of the Month Verdict
If you’re looking to upgrade your current van, add something distinctive to your fleet or simply want a commercial vehicle that combines practicality with standout styling, this Ford Transit Custom Limited RS Edition deserves serious attention.
It has all the capability you expect from a Transit Custom — but with a level of styling, comfort and specification that sets it apart from the crowd.
