Whereabouts in Canada is it headed?

well done mate.....after meeting you and that pile of crap I had a very long and hard think about it and a few sleepless nights....but I'm sure its going to a very deserving new owner,,,,they are very lucky

it drives as well as it looks got to be one of the most valuable private vehicles i have ever driven along with dai's van.
she drove perfectly with the little wbx spinning away in the back.

Just realised I'm a member of that group!

Damn! Missed my chance. I'll wait for the next one...

She's gone now handed her over to the shipping co. yesterday and all the paperwork signed and keys handed over. Funny thing even though I tried to not get attached to it,these vans do have a funny way of winning you over like a puppy and sad to see her go. I'm just very honoured to say I was the custodian of her for a while, and I do know I shall probably never see a van like that again never mind own one. However I have come to that strange realisation and moment of truth in ones life, that some vehicles are too good for me . However now I can once more dedicate my time towards the more deserving black swans of the Syncro world of a Marsala red variety and possibly a new creation there might be a Kangaroo on the horizon

Oh no! He's bought a fork lift truck .............

I'm sure her new owners will appreciate the comfort that has been brought to her from her lesser 14" cousin!

I felt very privileged to witness this van at the Overland show. I had received Irish comments prior to my viewing and was prepared for something out of the ordinary . . . but this was a van that reached out to my emotions, never have I seen anything like it! My head would have been all over the place had I have taken possession of this van . . . but you have passed it on to pastures green and places to explore . . . here's to black swans, getting down and dirty, good curries and a beer

Well done Paul, I bet you are gonna miss that heater tunnel!
