Who's got the newest late bay - not Brazillian.

yup that was a p1ss take as i went through a phase on here of people thinking i was a lot older than i am

I dont know if that was a good thing or not lol

 

lol

Who was it at camperjam that was convinced i was called dean and i was older than i am

 

65, he clearly said that above you tool. Lol

 

This my m plate coding



August 1978 planned production and registered in the UK in October 78

 

Congrats bodyrock, your bus looks to be the baby of the bunch on here at the mo, 3 days younger than my bus... K2U..

 

According to the M-Plate decoder website, mine has a planned production date of 21st June 1979, first registered in this country on 17th May 1980 on a 'V' plate. Being 'young' doesn't seem to have stopped it from being rusty though!

 

We need photo evidence. I'm not handing over the trophy till then. >

 

As you can appreciate, not the easiest of things to photograph but I've done my best
The M-Plate: the numbers 25 4, bottom left corner, show that Lemmy (for that is his name!) had a planned production date of week 25, day 4. Apparently this translates to Thursday 21st June.

The VIN plate behind the drivers seat: the third digit, 9, in the chassis number showing the manufacturing year as 1979.

Obviously, I stand to be corrected O0

 

Here you go, it's sideways I know. Just turn your head.

Congratulations. You have the youngest bus so far.

 

I don't have Automatic transmission anymore! Perhaps that's why it's a bugger to get into gear sometimes

 

Got a V reg but can't find my m plate !!

 

Finally managed to read and decode my m-plate, what a damn silly place to put such a thing!!

Unfortunately I don't have the youngest bay, (I knew that really before I started trying to get to the m-plate). Despite being registered in June '79, Ruby was actually produced in December 1978 and instead of being the camper I thought she was; it turns out that she started life as a delivery van! Bit disappointing really, but I still love her
