Thik i'm gonna put my classic car policy on it and tool about in it for a while, the old volvo is a bit heavy on the wallet even at 99.9p/litre.

Voila, an instant "scene" kit...

 

However, I would be more tempted to get a new front plate made up to match the rear one, that would be far better. Nice motor, good work Mr B..

Torsten I think!

 

 

What was wrong with the original headlights on this? Why were the Military always buggering about with the headlights on their vehicles, I mean thinking about the Bedford MK too, all they did was drop them a couple of inches, what was that all about?!

I think it was to keep the position of headlights within the legal requirements (height from the ground) once the 4x4 conversion has increased the ride height.

There used to be rules about headlight height but I think they have been abandoned now, judging by the amount of xenon-lighted behemoths going around.

Military headlamps.... it made sense to have the same sort of lamps on different vehicles....Look at Land Rover and Bedford for instance.Also they could carry 50 replacement units on the shelf, rather than one of each of 50 different units....better for cost more than anything!

Jeezus wept, just looking at that Strada caused me to have a 'religious experience'. Wonderful.

I have a strange hankering for an early Strada.... Unfortunately I have no space or money. Perhaps thats a good thing!

Have to say I prefer the later rear with the larger rear lights & the black strip across the hatch lip. Same with the R12

I don't mind the facelift rear but the plastic grille is nasty! Given the choice I'd take an early one any day though. I bet that one is a nice cruiser being an auto.
