Question. Why don’t we add 1615? |

FORD CARGO 1615 is a dustbin description often used for Ford commercials because they can't be arsed to put in the proper details. We have found loads of them from Escort vans to giant artics. There was a real Cargo 1615 as a mid-size truck. We get the same one-size-fits-all thing with Dennis Elite fire engines, some Volvos, a few Bedfords, Mercedes mid-size vans and coaches .... |

Thank you. I was asking because Brazil received tonnage versions and I added some to extra details. Wasn’t sure if I was wrong. Reason I asked. |

They did here too. They were named 80, 100, 120, 130, 160 and 190 here. This will be towards the heavier end with dual rear wheels and this design of wheel (not sure how high up the weight range these started): There's a brochure here: https://fordtransit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=47065&c=1 -- Last edit: 2020-11-03 23:14:02 |

I love those SVO models! Do we have any? |

I don't think so, unless they've not been properly named (County 4x4), they were converted to 4x4 by a company in Wales, small amount of background here: https://transitcounty4x4.co.uk/ |
