Anyone interested in a LDV Pilot/Sherpa

[stephen01]

I'm a little gutted TBH, should have moved faster

Brilliant! Vans with sliding front doors are the best vans in the world... PHACT

[Lankytim]

I'm travelling up from Stoke! Amazingly the insurance is only £210 odd with zero no claims. Can't wait not!

[stephen01]

you're just rubbing salt in the wound now ;(

[holbeck]

Well done Lankytim, I think a lot of us wouldn't have minded a couple of weeks running round in this.

[Lankytim]

I need it for a specific job, so after that it will probably be back up for sale, all nice and clean and with no signwriting. I may just fall in love with the experience and keep it though.

[Cavcraft]

Don't fall in love with it, sell it to me.

[Mr_Bo11ox]

I think the signwriting is one of its best features

[Lankytim]

I'll peel it off and save it so you can put it on your Laguna

I need it for a specific job, so after that it will probably be back up for ROFFLE, all nice and clean and with no signwriting. I may just fall in love with the experience and keep it though.

EFA

Get it right man!

[Supernaut]

I'd buy a couple of randoms for that roffle.

 

Imagine turning up to car meets in that!

 

 

Or even better, turn up at my parents' house "Yeah, I've got a sensible practical diesel..."

[oman5]

I don't want it, but I want to see some more pics...collection thread pls?

[Lankytim]

Sure!

 

Can vehicles with steering boxes be A framed or will the steering box lock the steering solid? Aren't they a worm drive or something?

[cobblers]

I'll pick you up from the train station if you'd rather tim?

[Lankytim]

I'm getting driving up with the missus and making a day of it "spending time together" and tat collection, 2 birds, 1 stone.

[500tops]

Signwriting makes it

[jonathan_dyane]

It should A frame fine.

[Guest Hooli]

 2 birds, 1 stone.

 

As Hitler said during a threesome

[mitsisigma01]

Someone win/buy it and bring it south all the way down to Sussex would be good then sell it to me !

[KruJoe]

I have A-framed a Niva once or twice. It didn't behave at all well, but I attributed that to the angles of the wishbones where we mounted the "A", rather than the fact it uses a steering box.

[mitsisigma01]

It isn't an old Gatwick depot FedEx van , too new for that , unless it was from London area . We broke them often but good fun to drive

[Lankytim]

Could it be an old fleet fan of some description? I'd love to find out some history on it.

[cobblers]

It seems to have been registered in a fleet - I mistyped the reg number and got it 20 or 30 out  and it came back as exactly the same white LDV (but scrapped ten years ago)

[Guest Lord Sward]

That looks like an ex-Federal Express home delivery van. CLASS. High-water mark for build quality on that MY too.

 

 

From page 2.......

[Lankytim]

From page 2.......

 

Any way of finding out? I've tried to google pics and have turned up nothing.

[DodgeRover]

All these vans! Thing for me is the bloody London LEZ bollocks which prohibits me from purchasing anything interesting and dizzle powered unless it is compliant.

 

Can a reg search be done on the LEZ website?

Yes google LEZ checker and chuck the reg in there.
