Needs a good under seal .. you can see how solid and original it is, nothing covered up.

Very solid, unmolested, original van .. that's had over £5k spent on it since it's been in the UK.
Starts on the button, a joy to drive & with Servo assisted brakes actually stops on the button.

Price, well in the crazy world of over priced buses a very fair £11k
