A bit short of 'luxuries', but I sort of like it.


I'd much prefer this than an old VW.

I love it but I would prefer an old VW just because of the value of them. That’s if I was given the choice and someone was going to give me one or the other. (y)

Think they got themselves a bargain. Lovely little van but can’t imagine driving from Kent to the NC500 on those seats. Probably need a gorgeous week just getting there 👍🏻

The old ones look nice but I don't think I would want to use one, I like my luxuries these days.

I love it.

Probably a garage load of work to keep it running but you would never be short of people coming to talk to you!

That's what Martin said when he saw the front seats - then I pointed out my wheelchair has less padding and I can often sit on that for hours at a time.

And no, we didn't buy ot although I do have a soft spot for the old Citroens, although I have never owned one.

I must have a bony bum, I get a numb bum in any vehicle & it doesn't matter how soft the seats are.

Be much more comfy if you take your wallet out of one back pocket and you mountain of change out of the other one..😂😂

the sinks remind me of a kitchen my parents had fitted - they were persuaded by the fitter to have a round sink and round draining board neither of which were big enough for dinner plates.
In this van i think I would have had one larger sink not two small ones.

But I love the look of it overall!

A hard seat is often more comfortable strangely enough!

dna we had a double round sink, one of which had a draining insert and chopping board cover. Looked nice but totally impractical!
