man GVW:2,800-3,070kg Cab: single, double Slightly softer In exterior styling than the Ford Ranger it shares its underpinnings with, the latest Bseries now sits in the category called competitive, as opposed to the previous model's also-ran status. This is thanks to a chassis that works as well on road as off. 11 can be hustled through corners and along motorways without any of the floatiness of the old version, and comes equipped with a 2.5-litre engine that has one of the flattest torque curves in the sector.
Inside it continues to impress thanks to a saloon car feel and a layout that has all the controls where you want them, though the dreaded umbrella handbrake also makes an appearance. Build quality is impressive, pointing to the overriding influence of the blue oval.
Not so noteworthy are the limited dealer network and potential lack of image compared with some rivals.
