Transit Van Insurance

The Ford Transit van has been the best selling light commercial vehicle in Europe for 40 years with over six million Ford Transit vans having been produced since 1965.

It is therefore little surprise that they are a very common site on our roads in the UK. The Transit has gone through many facelifts over the years and has also taken on a number of guises, such as ice cream vans, courier vans, ambulance vans, police vans and of course tradesman vans amongst others.

The Transit van was also allegedly used for 95% of all robberies in which criminals used a vehicle in the 1970s. This is a claim that a famous television programme once made. That very same programme actually took the Transit van to the world famous racing circuit, the Nurburgring, in a bid to set a lap time in under ten minutes, which is, both extremely challenging and extremely commendable. This just an example of how the Transit has been celebrated over the years.

Furthermore, the Ford Transit has also been tinkered with in a number of ways. For example, for many years now Ford have been putting high performance engines in their van, pretty much for fun. These projects are known as the Supervan’s. The most famous of all is known as the Supervan Mk3 which had a Cosworth Formula One engine fitted in the rear and an output of 730bhp. Tasty stuff indeed. However, this would go some way to ruining a cheap commercial vehicle insurance quote.

Purchasing commercial van insurance for your Transit is no different to any other van and we advise that you purchase full cover for your van. At the end of the day, if you own a Transit, it is more than likely to be integral to your day to day job. Effectively it is a mobile office, and so it is absolutely crucial that you protect it with a van insurance policy.

There are a whole number of ways in which you could lower your commercial vehicle insurance cover for your Ford Transit van. Make sure you have an alarm and an immobiliser fitted, and if possible you could have deadbolts and slam locks fitted, as well as an award winning Armaplate lock cover. These will all benefit you in your quest for a great van insurance policy.
