Most of us like a vehicle that is on the quick side; it’s good to be able to get out of trouble. John Borley likes it more than most; this is his Pendle mapped T4, but he has a Ducati 959 he likes to race too. Whilst the colour of John’s van has remained the same since he bought it – ‘kind of Ducati red’ – there’s not a lot about the van that’s similar now to when he got it. For starters, in John’s own words: “It had a Max Power style bodykit fitted to it that wasn’t to my taste, so that was one of the first things to get binned”.
I like John’s ethos for modifying this van. I’ve spent my whole adult life going for an OEM
