More than 30 years old, daft but true.

Surely that's only the case if it's still an actual bus though?  Converting it to a camper closes the loophole as it then becomes classed as private HGV.  Unless I've completely misunderstood the rules.

Interesting point but I think if you leave more than 8 seats, definitely 16, it still counts.

1-Everybody wants to sell what's already been sold
Everybody wants to tell what's already been told
What's the use of money
If you ain't gonna break the mold
Even at the center of the fire, there is cold
And all that glitters ain't gold
And all that glitters ain't gold

It doesn't matter just paint them gold he said.  Mot'd until August, quite a rare config with a 2.3 manual.

My FIL had one of these, also 2.3 manual in 1984 (but Ghia and brown with vinyl roof), it was always going wrong and I drove him & MIL up to Norfolk and collected them a week later in my 1275gt. He traded it for a new Renault 5!

Surely nobody tall enough to reach the pedals could also see under that sunshade thing?

But yeah, I really like this.  The “business coupe” is definitely a market sector that needs to make a comeback.

The 2.3GL I had is still one of my favourite cars, it was in the family from new and passed back and forth between me and my brother a few times over twelve years or so until it was eventually sold. It really needed a fifth gear on the motorway.

My wife's cousin had a Mk4 2.3 Ghia manual, it was an ace car.

You have to take your hat off to the Poxwagen brigade, they never cease to amaze with the sort of shit they'll create to make a camper van.
