Hiace camper with knackered engine for a grand. It actually looks pretty neat although I imagine trying to fit a 2.7 diesel engine somewhere into the middle of one of these wouldn't be a lot of fun.

Some kwality pics there. As for the engine, comes out upwards into the cabin and out via nearside door. Autobox goes down and backwards to remove after dropping the prop. The rust on that o/s/f arch says sparkly stick is heading it's way. Ask me how I know

A hairdryer would be the most useful tool for this, but there's a lovely car under all the stuck on crap.

They have stuck wonky V6 badging on the actual instrument cluster glass.

Diagnosis: Mentally unstable, should be locked away for the good of mankind.

"Selling this on behalf of my father..."

"...top of the rear bumper has had some scratches from loading which have been sprayed over. You could easily rectify this by buying a bumper protector strip which start from around £5.00"

This deranged fetish for sticking cheap shit to innocent cars clearly runs in the family

Check out this little snazzlord. One of the two 'elderly lady owners' has fitted a Landrover steering wheel to it.

'45k miles from new all genuine miles' 

'Had to realist due to buyer who brought it didn’t want it because there a issue with mileage but there must be something wrong when they got it mot previous put the mileage per gallon down on mot so that’s where the problem is with miles !!!!' 

 

7th July:  45,068 miles

28th June 2014:  12,998 miles

29th June 2013:  37,576 miles.

 

Hats off,  a very impressive 12,998MPG from a Transit 2.0 petrol. Oh well, one slight mistake is fair game I suppose.  Might as well just leave that MOT history checker now, not worth carrying on looking really,  hey? What's that, might as well look whilst we're there? 

 

25th August 2006:  98,693 miles.

16th August 2006: 98,576 miles .

 

It's almost as if the milometer only goes to 99,999 then starts again. How strange!

Loads of cable changer spares with this one, although there is only two cable changers left in Holland.

Even sports a cable changer steering wheel. they are normally fitted with one of these :-

I can see this being a nice cruiser to waft about in.

How is that not a big fat honking deal? If I had that money spare (and wasn't about to deal with a debt almost certain to cost me my Volvo 164) that would be on my driveway this weekend..

Go slowly but nicely...not expensive and lots of space.  This is the sidevalve version for those that dislike OHV and speed. With Gert and Daisy in the back you could hold up holiday traffic for miles and have lots of fun.

Designed by Raymond Loewy Studios. Just look at the dashboard.

Column change gearbox to wrestle with while you smoke a pipe.

Rare survivor - most of these were scrapped in the 1960's because of rust and sloth.

This is quite an early one and appears to be running its original trafficators which could make changing lanes on the M25 tricky but deeply rewarding.

Nice old thing that has clearly been loved over the years. Repainted but I think that subtle gold is an original Humber colour.

Humbers have a difficult time surviving overall given their lumber characteristics, RUST and lack of image as well as spares dearth. Probably more left in Australia and New Zealand of this type than here?

A heavy and over-bodied car but charming. And you can spend your leisure hours decoking the side valve engine.

As  viable transport deeply dynamically flawed - but as an expression of eccentric independence  fantastic  - and now immune to bothersome bureaucracy.

I'd love that if only for the privilege of sitting on that well worn seat and gazing in wonder at that dashboard!
