Had the car for 23yrs

Reason for sale is due to golf bags and trollies not fitting in boot.

Where has he put them for the last 23 years then??

This has just popped up for sale near me. I suspect the owner may be open to a deal involving a caravan as part payment. The Bedford behind is also up for grabs too.

Why are all those LWB Transit fire vans coming up for sale now? Did we do a deal with the Krauts and swapped all our Green Goddesses with them?

Dont think it has got the correct size of rims fitted - that said all Tagoras were like this and athesetically was probably its biggest failing. This was in part due to the last minute reengineering that peugeot did to the car to rid it of its chrsyler europe based runing gear hence the full rear trailing arm set up from the 504/505 was transpanted lock stock and barrel on to the shell.

How difficult would it be to convert a Tagora to RHD? Do any donor vehicles exist?

Heh, they're cheap as chips in Germany. You can pick up mega low mileage (kilometrage?) ones for €1500 or so. Someone did it a few years ago and sold a really nice one for £7k as a 'perfect race team van' and that was it. They're all flooding over here. I was considering buying one last year to tow the Escort back with.Problem is, most are 1.7 V4s so they get blown up long before leaving Germany, they've got a top speed of about 60 mph and they drink like Olly Read.

The German fire brigade had a volunteer section in every village (a bit like the lifeboat principle) and the transits were kitted out as a mini fire engine, designed to get to a fire and make a start whilst the big pumps were on their way from the nearest town. They gave the vans a shelf life of 30 years, so just about all of them have been released into civvy street now.

I don't particularrly care that has modified the Maestro....just the crap attitude to something he was given as a present and the anal praising by his worshipers....do something nice then fineI'm a member of ratlook.co.uk, and while I dont like everything they do. some of the folk put some nice touches into their motors not just rust them outHell, I've modified every motor I've owned bar 2, which both got sold....

Phew at least I'm not the only member on rat look and autoshite. :) I find the people on there friendly and funny and as you say, many of the cars in the 'reader's rides' section are full of nice touches.(Same as here incidently) I'm not a Maestro fan in any way shape of form and quite like some of the stuff done to this one, but then again I drive a 'ratted' Sierra, so I would wouldn't I?

I'd quite fancy a Viva like this one day in this shape, i prefer the front on this to the more common "L" models front.

I LOVE that model of Galant, really clean styling. I'd thought them to be extinct here, good to know there's one at least...

Look at this J4 van he's selling, i never even knew they made them this late, it even has sliding doors.

 

I take it the Sherpa was the newer version of this van then?.
