It used to be a nice shade of blue before "my daughter an me roller painted it army green" :roll:
Espace seats? "german specification" petrol V6 but no pictures of that...I bet it's an iron Cologne. Nice and heavy with a healthy thirst.
Interior isn't a bad home-brew as they go and the roof tent looks quality but the wheels on the wrong side :lol:

Wasnt there a V6 stinko doing the rounds on ebay around xmas time? IIRC it was the same shade of non OE looking blue and had either a bright orange front or rear end cant remember.

Looking at door shuts i think the blind daughter did them.

Any one got any more info on this syncro? I have bought it off ebay, 270763611665, but not collected yet.
Now brush painted army green ! Seller sounds genuine but just had a warning about the seller from another forum member.
Should i steer clear and lose my £200 deposit? Or is it worth a punt

Suppose the best way to look at it is, a good caravelle syncro will probably set you back 6k. So you have to look at your one and look at whether it will cost 2-3k to get it mechanically sound.
Doubtful you have got a bargain, but doesn't mean you've paid too much, all depends on the running gear

Heres the add on brickies, get loged in and speak to the previous owner (assuming it did sell and not still with him).

At a guess I would stick my neck out and say its a Winkler V6 conversion. Very popular in the 80's/early 90's on the continent.

He still sells some parts for it:
