History:
This small lorry from the British Leyland group is a converted and type-approved van version. This version, whose bodywork components are derived from the Austin J4, is a van adapted for urban traffic; its particularly narrow and relatively long dimensions, combined with its flat surfaces, make it a vehicle that can go anywhere. British public authorities adopted it, starting with the London police, the post office and various hospitals. It is clearly a well-designed and well-proportioned vehicle, very easy to maintain, with a petrol engine – often an MG 1800 cc – which, whilst slightly underpowered, is compensated for by its generous capacity.
Condition:
This version, registered as a motorhome as evidenced by its VASP registration certificate, is in fine condition with a 1970s/1980s-style interior. The bodywork and chrome trim are in good condition, and the interior layout includes a kitchen, dining area, compact bathroom, fridge, heating and berths. The pop-up roof lifts up, allowing you to stand upright without difficulty. The floors are made of seagrass, which provides better insulation.
The vehicle presents very well overall; furthermore, a number of parts are included, including bodywork and fittings.
It is worth noting that this version is rare and sought after by discerning collectors.
