  1. Hi Guys,




    Here is Lulubelle, our 1973 M-Yes I know its weird-an non tax exempt M Reg crossover???!!!!!!


    She started life as a Swiss firetruck and was retired in 2003 with a mere 9000 miles on the clock!!! She has now covered 34000 miles from new, we havnt picked her up yet, she is currently on a car transporter on the way back from Spain where she has been living since her last owner moved to Marbella last year.


    This was her when she was first retired:

    Ms.T has told me to stop looking at panel vans, cos I ain't getting one ( or words to that effect) :mad:
     
  6. Very cool looking panel. 8)
     
  7. That looks great!
     
  8. Gorgeous looking van 8)
    if it hasn't got one already I'd get a birth cert from germany, because if there are tax exempt late bays they must have finished with the cross overs before the end of 72 surely!? unless it took them a year to wire the blue light :)

  10. Nice looking Van! 8)


    And on the whole tax exepmt thing, mines a 234 built in 73' also and doesn't qualify for tax exempt even though mine is a cross over too that had the front panel changed!


    Wierd stuff went on in that factory is all I can presume!
