Hi everyone, the funds are in place and I'm now looking for a Syncro... I owned one back in the mid nineties (a rhd twin sliding door panel van, E487XHL) and I'm now looking to own again. Anyone selling?

Cheers Jed, I need to give Ninjaturtle a buzz about his, yup. Shame that beige pop-top is sold, that would have been perfect...

Yup, that's me...
Can anyone give an opinion on the importance of a having front diff lock? How much difference to my life will it make?

It helps....but can be retro fitted if you find a perfect van exept for the front locker.

Obviously you may think I'm being biased but.... I have been stuck, engaged rear locker and driven out. I have never as yet been stuck with rear in, engaged front and driven out.

If you really want a front locker then I'm sure Jason (Hugo monkey) can sort one out for you.

I'm not going to go into a sales pitch, but you are welcome to pop over for a chat or to have just to have a nose around both of mine.

Oops, I meant to say "Hello Paul"

You've got two? My first one had a front locker and I can see the advantage of having one in a vehicle with limited suspension travel although since then my off road driving style has matured.
Yep, will give you a buzz tomorrow, are you busy over the weekend?

I'm only selling the Caravelle because I have a Westy syncro. I love the Caravelle but I have to be realistic.

Pretty busy at the weekend but I'm about Monday during the day. Give me a call and we can have a chat.
