@Desscythe17 You are correct, even in Wikipedia for example, the Mondeo has 4 gens but as carknower says, they have next to the main gens the UK gen (MK.4 /M.5 for example) so basicaly we have to choose between the EU or the UK system.

Even though the Transit has deep UK roots, I'm not sure about listing each facelift as a gen, where we should make the cut? Almost all cars are listed on real differences between model years, and so far the Transit and the Mondeo would be on the UK system, but since they are sold worldwide...long story short. It's a mess.

So what do we do? At least for Transits. 4 gens, or 8 gens?

I would say 4 gens instead of 8. A generation to me really is a "new" generation.

Facelfted Ford Mondeos from 1997-2000 are called MK 2s, despite being almost the same car as the Mk 1 Mondeos from 1993-1996

J-2, if I'm not mistaken, it's a UK-EU difference. The Ford Fiesta IV, when facelifted in 1999 became the Ford Fiesta V in the UK, yet most other countries just saw it as a facelifted IV. I believe that the Transit might be a similar story in that Ford UK officially recognizes the facelifts as new generations, yet other countries don't.

Who is trying to change ALL Transits back to the wrong generation?

I just said why I changed them and that person didn't even bother to read. I'll try again.

Almost no one doubts the Mk.1 Transit was every one from 1965 to 1986 right? That's a lot of years.





So...why some people believe these two are completely different gens?





Or these two?





The Mk.4 is the current Transit. Yes, Ford Spain said it's the Mk.5 because of one of the Mk.1 model year being considered a different one, just like what happened with the 2000 Seat Ibiza (many considered it a new gen, but it was simply a very deep restyling of the 1993 one)

We could debate if there are 4 or 5 gens, but 7? No. Specially since that implies saying a 2001 Transit is a different gen than a 2011 one, which is not true at all.

I just fixed all Mk. numbers for all Transits. Mk.V is wrong, only 4 gens have been made so far.

Gens go as follows:

First generation (1965–1986)
Second generation (1986–2000)
Third generation (2000–2013)
Fourth generation (2013–present)

I love how they changed the D in ADAC to a B to avoid licensing issues.

Also, unrelated to the vehicle, but...if you take the first two letters, duplicate them, and place the duplicate 'AB' at the end, you get the title of a well known Genesis track and album.


I´m very surprised the ADAC is known in the U.S. :wow:
Yeah, you´re talking about "Abacab" which was released in 1981 (a very important year for me too :D ).
