Transit van

<< < (2/3) > >>

Wireless:
Powys Ambulance Service (now part of an all Wales Service) used to have 4x4 transit V6 3 litre ambulances, we didn't in Shropshire, always wanted to try one out....

That was over ten years ago.

There may be a few still out there in private hands if people are interested in getting one, they have glass fibre bodywork, so they should still be ok, just make sure you take a good look underneath.

I have seen a few Tdi 4motion (4 wheel drive) VW vans around recently which look pretty smart.
The old 4x4 sherpa's were great 8)  :lol:

The Sherpa V8 4x4's? I feel sure The Met used them as the transport of choice for the SPG in the late 70's/early 80's. A real wolf in sheep's clothing!

I broke one of these in January. It was a 'special' built by Quaife as a 4x4 demonstrator, Rover V8, RRC front axle, Quaife Diffs front and rear & a 6 speed sequential gearbox. Pretty much the same as the met jobbys, but much, much quicker. Still got the engine in the garage, only done 400 miles from BRAND NEW !!!!
