This is an ex demonstrator that has been in my family since 1991, easily the best vehicle we have ever owned, my folks now both over 70 love it when I take it to their house and toss them the keys.

Not seen too many of those lately. College mate had one in red a decade ago!

Does the job when it comes to acting as a builders van, film crew vehicle, family camper, and leaner vehicle for the resident teenager, she works hard, plays harder :-)

Thats what you tend to think, yet I too don't recall the last time I saw one on the road.

So despite selling a good few, and their being almost indestructible, something here doesn't quite add up ....

They were definitely never what you'd count as "great" cars, but utterly dependable. It is nice to see one so clean.

how many miles on the clock? A friend of my dads had one run for 240,000 before he sold it!
