Anyone selling a Mk1 sliding passenger side door?

Hi
Looking for a passenger side, sliding side door, (preferably with a window in it but beggars & choosers) in/near Worcestershire/Gloucestershire/Herefordshire for a Mk 1 Dispatch - thank you

Re: Anyone selling a Mk1 sliding passenger side door?

What is wrong with your door? Is it impact damaged or have a mechanical issue?

I only ask because yesterday I scrapped a dispatch (no windows) I'd been using for spare parts. I scrapped it at Pengam PartsMart in Welsh valleys so not a million miles away but most likely something closer to you. I'd removed the internal mechanism off the door (riveted on) but still transferable.
As its only just arrived at the scrappy they may let a door go cheap.
Must be some taxi doors floating about though?

Thank you - I'll give them a buzz (I broke the window in mine & it's impossible to replace so it has to be the entire door instead)

The one in front can be prised out of my cold dead fingers!
Besides, it's an HDi. You 1.9d lot would never catch me. I do believe the red one's final journey hanging out of the backside of that crossword on wheels was the fastest it had ever gone

Yet not one, in seven years of ownership managed to overtake me
begs the question, if the fancy turbo etc lot just not that good drivers

That's because we like to slow down eyeing up other vans potential improvements or for harvest..
I swear whenever I drive past another van I can feel the other driver eying me up for spares

I've tried a few times to give other DispatchExpertScudos a wave but sadly none of them seem to appreciate being a member of our exclusive club!

You sound to be even slower than that, nobody sees you waving in the mirrors half a mile back
