Re: A bloody big syncro
If the owner sprayed it a decent colour it would sell no problem, but nobody wants a bloody camel on their van, do they?? Equally if you bought it and spayed it it could be a nice van for not too much money. Get some Rustoleum on it!!!

Re: A bloody big syncro
Well you won't see another one if they only made 10 syncro variants! Reading the Deutscheblurb I see it sleeps 3 upstairs and 2 down. A 5 berth T3 would be ideal for my tribe! Not sure m'lady would go much on the aesthetics, mind...

Re: A bloody big syncro
Good on you. Are you going to keep the colour scheme??
Reckon it'll be an awesome wild camper, though may struggle on some of the serious stuff as must weigh a fair bit.

Re: A bloody big syncro
I love that, even the paintjob....
I do wonder if it will be a tiny bit slow
with the std 1.6 oil burner and all that sky to lug around ?
Still, I'll be intersted to see it in the flesh sometime !
Good luck timthetrader, hope it works out

Simon, presume you're talking about speying the Camel, though not sure they take kindly to Rustoleum as a dessert...

Tim, Howdee, hope all's well with your family and well done

You cant dump the back. It is permanent. I like it but with a different camouflage.

Re: A bloody big syncro
Well done Tim. Good to see someone brave enough to buy something a bit different 
Bidding is still open and it's got 2 days to run though
...I note that you can have it with all the goodies (wheels, lights, isri seats etc) or without. Like you'd pass those up!
