    The autosleeper conversions were high quality, and the fixtures and fittings so durable they actually outlive the base vehicle. Lovely little van.

      Van prices have doubled in the past year, Andrew. I doubt Wayne would sell it for the same price he bought it.

      Anyone aware of current events realises there may soon come a time when we have to go off-grid to avoid the worst of the collapse. Those who haven’t prepared will be desperate, and crime will reign in cities.

    My old Talbot is the same year. In just over three years no breakdowns except for a fan belt which was an easy fix. They are great little old school vehicles with simple robust engines. The gearbox selector takes a little getting used to though.

    I had the Rambler version of this classic. Lots of fun touring UK for a few years. Only hassle was gear selection problems. Adjustments were never ideal to get smooth first to reverse.
    I wish steering assist was available in those days too.
