A thoroughly likeable and eminently practical MPV

Business Car Manager verdict

The surprising thing about the Ford Tourneo is not how commodious it is – with eight seats it’s already a more versatile ‘Multi Purpose Vehicle’ than most – but how good it is to drive.

You would expect something this tall and boxy to be a bore on the bends, but it isn’t. 

Ford has translated its Transit Custom into a thoroughly likeable as well as practical business car, MPV, big family transporter, the firm’s minibus, taxi, or whatever you want to make of it.
