History: manufactured and bought new in 1991 by the MOD, originally a hi-cap body. Decommissioned and became road registered in 1998( hense being two different dates)
In 2010 it was rebuilt to '92 CSW then converted to an overland/camper van.
Bought in late 2017, almost completely rebuilt and sprayed inside and out to the beautiful colour of sandstone! With plenty more work being done to it. We purchased it on the basis of wanting to travel around Europe at ease and to suit our surfing and snowboarding/skiing adventures.
