had a good look with matte the other day, but have not heard back from the seller yet so im presuming it was not 'good enough'.
i think we came to the conclusion that there are much better vans out there for less.

he was pretty keen to put it up for sale at 10999. i offered 6, so go figure

This van was for sale down Ravenswood way-ish back in 2005 by a guy and his missus who was living in a caravan park. He told me at the time that he had restored the thing himself and was selling because they planned to travel.

He was chasing about 9 grand for it at the time but was open to offers. I didn't make one as it was more than I wanted to spend at the time. Ha!

And, yeah, pretty sure it had a 202 in it at the time.

Anyway, I guess somebody bought it.

...and sold it.

[trex]

unfortunately it doesnt look that good now though.
rust has come back through and the wheels are terrible.

certainly had some charm back in the day though by the looks.

[Dano]

did you buy it Trex?

[trex]

nope not yet dano.
im beginning to wonder if the place would have minimum trade in though? might be worth buying a shitter and trading it in with some dollars and see how far that gets me.

i was in there the other day, and the vans out the back out of view. Apparently the guys are thinking of keeping it an using it as a promo vehicle for Lynford..

I think with minimum trade you need to have owned the car for 3 months, but the way they were talking the other day, the minimum trade is a scam.. they'll mark the car upto 15990 then give you the 5000 minimum trade so they still get their 10990.

They didn't seem to like that their fantasies were being crushed when we (us and others) went in and told them the van was worth far less than they were hoping to rake in.

Its just a shame i never called the bloke before he traded it, as he probably would have loved to sell the van for 5000 to a bedford lover, as im sure he would have received the 5000 minimum trade, so it would have been an even outcome for him, and a benefit for a member of buga..

oh well, hindsight is a wonderful thing
