Glad you decided on one of those rather than a older one, better look for your company imo.

New model is MUCH better for your business than the other one you posted up
Are you at all worried / suspicious as to why its had reconditioned gearbox / fuel pump though?

Yes.
Fuel pumps and power steering pumps are very common problems on transits, its not a case of if they break, its when they break, Mike B has just had to fork out £850 for a new pump on his and that was his mate fitting it, the rest of the stuff is a bit suspect but I drove it for half an hour up and down the motorway and round an estate and had no arguments at all, he did say its been resprayed but I had a good poke round the arches, sills and top of the windscreen and it seemed fine. I got there though and seen how clean it is and thought this has got to be hiding something, its cleaner than my car!
the man I bought it from is a transit breaker and this is his personal one that he runs round in droppin bits off, looks like he makes a few quid from it too, his other car was a RR Sport

Im not too sure they are dodgy as fuck for them though, we had one at work go at 33k and I believe Mike B`s was on 140k ish when his went, this one better be ok!
just looking at an alarm for it too...
and some wind deflectors, bull bar, running boards, fog lights

I wondered what you were talking about there as I missed your comment
I have been known to do it after a long shift and wanting to get home to sleep. But work keep an eye on how much fuel we use now so it's 70mph all the way usually

Also need to wear a shirt like this
