Epic delivery C15


Recommended Posts

Posted

No epic collection thread or long haul train or bus journeys yesterday for this.. was delivered to my door by a good friend. Very presentable C15 van. Needs some stuff sorting out. Needs a drivers door and both rear doors to leave it very nice. Anyone here got any bits for one of these?822DD3C6-3FD5-484E-BD7C-457EF469095C.thumb.jpeg.b17b44bfbd1519344a3b45197afb028e.jpeg

Spiffing! Not seen one of them for yonks. What reg is it on?

It’s Northern Ireland Registered - but in the process of a cherished transfer.  It’s UK registered but not with the usual letter defining age… NI plates are dateless

Very nice! I can't remember the last time I saw a van, but saw this at the last boot fair this year...

You should come and see us at Six-cylinder's FoD (Field of Dreams) there is often a C15 Van and with advance notice we can make sure it is there.

5 Sambas! You own almost half the remaining Samba population.

Oh man, I love a C15! They go like stink away from the lights when they aren't Romahomes. That one looks really good too!

I am still looking for some bits for @bigfella2 but if I find anything van-specific I will let you know.

You do seem to have a problem having so few cars!

Can you not get some sort of government grant as you are obviously a deprived person!

Love a C15 - Fun little bits of kit. Only thing I did not like was the brakes - But a hoot to drive still.

A guy I used to work for had a period of buying us £50 shit vans. He bought a Renault extra which had cooling issues. He bought a scrap Extra for parts and ended up running both of them. Then came a petrol C15 with so much rot that the inserts in the side panels fell out.

Eventually his Mrs put her foot down and insisted he bought something more presentable.

Good old boy bought an ex Partco C15D!

The diesel was faster than the petrol.

My biggest memory was the Hat and Shoe heater control symbols.

That C15 in the Aston Martin video was driven by a legend. I only hope it had Mr Tourette written on the side and a half swigged bottle of red in the door pocket.
