\"BarnesNottingham brickwork firm Barnes and West has taken delivery of three Ford Transit Connects in vibrant Mars Red, a standard colour from Ford\u2019s palette.<\/p>\n

However, with some creative thinking from the dealer\u2019s decal designer, dark cream paint has been added to represent brick mortar. Once sign-written with the company\u2019s name and contact details, the result is a finish that makes Barnes & West stand out from the competition.<\/p>\n

The Transit Connect vehicles \u2013 supplied by Sandicliffe Ford dealership in Nottingham<\/a> \u2013 are all top-of-the-range Limited models with alloy wheels, air-conditioning and Bluetooth connectivity as standard.<\/p>\n

Inside, the load area has been fully ply-lined and specialist roof racks have been fitted to allow external large load carrying, and for added security, vehicle tracking devices have been installed.<\/p>\n

David Haynes, sales manager, Sandicliffe Ford, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all part of the \u2018one-stop shop\u2019 service that we offer. For customers like that we can do everything, unlike some other retailers, and it means we can deliver vehicles that are ready for action right from the off.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese vans look fantastic and demonstrate how the expanding range of Ford commercial vehicles can be tailored to work perfectly for small businesses, no matter what the requirement.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Barnes & West owner, Colin Barnes, has operated more than 30 Ford vehicles during the three decades that the company has been in business and is a big fan of Ford vans:<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re reliable, spares are readily available and with all the extras, they do the job for us.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Can’t say fairer than that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
