Have you been to look at it? Or have you just offered money?
I'd want to go look at it first before agreeing price. Looks nice, but I'd want a good look at the metalwork painted black, and how well the poptop has been fitted.
Check that he has the prop, and make sure it has a syncro gearbox not a 2WD one. Take it for a drive too, get some speed up and check it doesn't pop out of any gears.
Good luck

Make sure that you have a knowledgeable person look at that van for you. It's going to be very difficult to check anything otherwise.

Also check with Aidan to see if it is still under warranty.

Looks like a pretty good, usable Syncro, if everything checks out.

Agreed on a price but he did say a guy from glasgow emailed after i spoke to him and he wants to see how much the bloke will offer.
