Buying A Transit Connect 1.8Tdci

Hi all,

I'm looking at buying a Transit Connect with my dad, he needs it for work and I'm using it at weekend's.

We ideally want a 110bhp one, is there anything in particular to look for?

I know the basic things like inside oil cap and white smoke etc but I mean more specific to the connect

Thanks in advance

Andy

    My mate bought a connect, and had to take it back for a refund in the end. 

    As far as I am aware 

    A common fault is the EGR valve failing it can be costly to replace 

    Also, the injectors short have a short life... again costly as involves recoding them...

    Hopefully someone will shed more light on this
