Ooooooooooh 1.9TD too, where was that?

It's in surprisingly good nick. Where are the rust patches? The sills look pristine!

Interestingly the sliding door looks to not be a door. I think I've only seen that on LHD models

Re: Spotted in the wild

It belongs to a young dutch couple who bought if off an older lady, they said.
Apparently it was a professional conversion, but I didnt get a look inside. Anyway the first thing I looked at was the sills, which were pristine. Was interested in the windows were the same as mine (a bugger to fit this size)
No not Devon, but Lake Skhoder in Albania

I was misled by the recent sun shine and the palm trees.

I once had a cracked side window in a van and spent months measuring in the streets and searching catalogues to find a replacement.  The slight variations where endless but I eventually found one only differing by 1" in one direction.  There was enough door left to cut it in.

Similarly I currently have a broken, non standard fridge vent gaffer taped in place till I find one to match the hole.
