RACKING, LINERS, AND ACCESSORIES FOR THE FORD CONNECT

Available now from Syncro System: all the solutions and everything you need to
upfit your new Connect 2013 model

Syncro System has everything you need for your 2013 model year Connect. The Ford Connect is a small van in the multispace segment. It is sold as a panel van and as a people carrier. Depending on how it is equipped, the Connect can satisfy a wide range of needs. It offers good road holding and a generous load capacity thanks to a stylish and aerodynamic yet highly functional design. First introduced in 2003, the Connect was radically updated in 2013. Though the name remained unchanged, the 2013 version was effectively a completely new vehicle. Ford has put a great deal of effort into reducing the Connect’s running costs. The latest series therefore boasts low fuel consumption, good reliability and low maintenance costs while still being extremely spacious and pleasant to drive. The Courier, Transit, Custom and Connect make up the hand that Ford is playing in its drive to conquer the global market for commercial vehicles, and form a range that is both complete and convincing in every way.

FLOOR LINERS AND INTERIOR LINERS FOR THE NEW CONNECT

The 2013 Connect suffers from the all-too-usual problem of a poorly protected load compartment. If cargo strikes the bodywork while the van is moving or during loading and unloading operations, it can easily damage the body panels or floor, leading to corrosion and, sooner or later, costly repairs. Knowing this, Syncro System supplies interior protection for the Connect too. The impressive Syncro range includes floor liners in 12 mm thick resin-bonded plywood or aluminium tread plate, bulkhead liners again in plywood or aluminium, and bodywork protection in galvanised and painted steel, aluminium or lightweight plastic.
