Thanks guy it was a wagon someone has spent a lot of time and money on the convertion and for what Paid I just had to have it it get a lot of attention and some nice comments needs a little tidying or finishing really it was built the same as ht autos one they done a few years ago although this isnt quite up to the standard of theres they had it up for sale on there site for £8995 crazy.But I use it every day since I got it last week and it fun and good in the snow so I now have 3 classics it must be a mental problem lol

It drives very good tbo it has a large welded frame welded where the backs been cut away so quite stiff also it's standard and its feels a bit under powered but all my scoobys run 350 upwards but I'm sure that will change

If you chop about a monocoque chassis no matter how much stiffenting you put in or how cool it looks its 'radically altered' and shouldn't be on its original number plate. I believe it should be a Q plate.

Any plod who has half a brain would know that because I do and I'm just a regular bloke who doesn't get paid to know this sort of stuff.

I would perpare yourself for a royal BIVA SVA IVA shafting on that one matey!


It was svad and has a mot and log book so it ok thanks for the heads up though
