I'd say easily possible, I have owned numerous extremely low mileage early 90s cars and even not using them the condition can get pretty bad like that it left outside. Park under lots of trees are your car can be 0 to Jumanji in no time.

Has the mileage been rubbed off the cambelt change?

Saw this there last year. 👍

That is truly bus porn at its best!  :-) (well for me anyway)

The only down side is the "DAF" badge under the numberplate.

It's the Saab in the background that does it for me.

In the early '70s where I worked a C reg (1965) two stroke Saab used to come in. I will always remember it going "biiiiiiiing, bing bing bing" as he drove it in with a blue cloud of smoke behind it.

I got talking to the driver one day and it turned out that it was an ex "Pat Moss/Eik Carlsson" car. He lived near them and did "odd jobs" for them. He said that in the day when the rally team were over and visiting them you could hear the two-stroke cars screaming round the countryside at night. He also said that when Pat Moss had their daughter the team brought over disposable nappies which weren't available in the UK at the time.

I think he later had a V4.  Nice, but not the same.

£1,000/best offer.

Sellers picture 12,check a car picture, states involved in plate change, so mileage was probably 13k in 2006 then was put on a private plate which probably shows a shit ton of miles, then put back to original plate..... 

Detective LBFun could probably solve the riddle. 

The cambelt sticker looks like 40..... so unless it was changed mega early at 4000 miles he's probably fibbing

Very (pre?) Forward Control.

Odd that it has a v6 engine - v8 I could understand as a later upgrade.

I think it's very much Home built, despite the text suggesting it was a professional conversion.

I can't figure this advert out?

Buy it now price of £550, but you do get a roof rack and a half ass-embled trailer. 

But what about the secateurs, lighter fluid, scotch-brite pad, sachets of Dijon mustard/ketchup or the other various tat? Because that would really swing the deal for me. :-P

Apparently this chap is locally hated, so says the sticker in the front window. I can't think why?

If that's a 1972 van then I'm Kylie Minogue. 

A EARLY DONOR VAN WAS USED FOR THE BITS THAT WAS MISSING HENCE THE L REGISTRATION 

Aha, now it's coming clearer...

THE MAIN SHELL CAME FROM MALTA WITH A TOYOTA 1C DIESEL ENGINE AND 5 SPEED GEARBOX

Right,,, so all the originality is gone then?  And you want how much???

Classified ad price:

£2,995.00

Oh well that's ok then.

Worth every penny.

Of £25.

The parts of that which offend my eyes the most are the wheel trims. Yeuch!

Supercharged 2000 Bonneville SSEi with apparently just 85k miles for just a grand.

While not the most exciting car out there, for a grand this could be an absolute steal. I think these are rather sleek and the drivetrain will last forever being the indestructible buick 3800.
