I've just been looking through the paperwork for my Austrailian Syncro with a Trakka camper conversion which came, as they say "with all the fruit". I found you had to pay stamp duty on new cars and the total was 77,723 Aus$ and the exchange rate at the time was a favorable 2.52 to the £ which would have meant it cost the equivalent of £30,842.46 1990 GBP, or using the converter further up this post - the equivalent of £52,261.69 in todays money...that's more than I payed for my house

Would that have been for the rear or both?
