You're correct, it is an LDV. In fact in Australia they're branded as LDV rather than Maxus. I'm almost surprised it's not the same in the UK of all places... Although I'm not sure where the Maxus name is from so maybe it makes some sense I'm not informed on. Sorry to hear about your aunt and all... That's very sad, obviously. Condolences... May her soul live on in peace, and may the connections in life continue in whatever ways they can. And I hope your father is able to heal and recover from what's ailing him. All the best

Hi Martin, I have a 1.6 XL automatic and I’m sure as you know it’s hard to find information on them! Is there anyway I can somehow contact you to send a picture or two. There is a hose in my engine bay which is not connected to anything and would love to see what yours looks like underneath the hood if you wouldn’t mind. Thanks and love the channel! Keep up the good work. Luke

How much would you want for it if you sold it?

These were a market traders best friend! Such a beautiful van with a beautiful sounding engine.

“IM A HAPPY CAMPER!”

You mentioned a two stroke oil tank, the correct oil is a good 20/40 motor oil_two stroke will wreck the plain big end.

1:43 quite fast for a Van!

It is Not a 7 horse power engine.

There will be arguments for both sides but ultimately it's the choice of the owner. It's a beautifully done conversion and I wonder why the owner went to so much bother to run the exhaust so neatly across to the other side. I have been toying with the idea of putting a Perkins engine in my Allis WC, it would make it a lot more reliable and therefore more likely to be taken out of the shed!

For originality petrol/paraffin, for more power, lower maintenance and better running costs the Perkins diesel.

Love it ! What year is it?

Great van. Not many clean ones left now

Just saw your video. My LT has reg L550PKU !

Where did you find out this was fuel injected? I just bought a 93 1.6 XL Auto but reading on the internet it’s carbureted?

It's not. It's correct. Non pas car, also ambla box pleat, in Bronze here, correct for a pre 74 season S.

Looks like a very late 'High Compression' S before the October 73 revisions. Lower Compression ratio, and fitment of Hif6 type carbs as per the 2200 models, introduced at the same time along with trim changes as per 2.2 Couple of things as per originality. Non PAS car, so steering wheel IS correct. Some rubbish in the comments here. Also, Ambla Box pleat trim, is completely correct, in Bronze here, Ebony and Buckskin were also offered with Monza Red bodywork, Leather remaining an option. So, all seems authentic, I'd ignore some of the expert advice on here regards trim, steering wheel etc, entirely correct. Lovely Car, had a few, all the best.

Oh the memories....TR7 rust free? Not sure I remember those! Good work big man....kind regards😉

Nice!

The bulge in the bonnet is standard for automatic 205's

I guess we could have heard the engine running if you just stopped talking for a while.

Apparently there are currently 6 1992 models still on the road in the UK and 9 1991’s. I suspect mine is not counted because it was exported to France about 10 years ago and reregistered over here.

I’m in the process of getting my mums old automatic back up to scratch. Pretty much identical to this one,it’s a 1991 XL, but mine has a Weber carburetor with an automatic choke which is an absolute nightmare to set up, with it’s stupid automatic choke AAAARHHH! 🤬. But I love it for the same sentimental recasons as you do. Poppy is currently at 54,000 miles. I’m looking forward to receiving my manual choke conversion kit from the UK (I live in France). Subscribed ! And 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 to Brexit 😂

G'day mate I have one similar to this and I've just restored the deck on it. But I'm trying to figure out how to get the deck to lift with the lift lever. I can get the back of the deck to lift but I'm not sure how to lift the front of the deck up any thoughts??

I have the exact same van. 2.4 E. d non turbo Does yours have power steering? Beautiful van !!

I had a mk1 MR2 in early 90s. Brilliant car. Had it for about 3 years then traded for something a bit more practical. 😂

Did you guys get the datsun 510? If you put the 2 litre engine and suspension kit in them they could be little rocket ships .😊 yes i did. rocked more than a few much more expensive cars with it.was a 72 2dr.

Those fords were crap wrapped in lard.

Great Vans VW LT’s 80’s & 90’s I want a load of them for my self in Petrol & Diesel

Looks like the steering wheel got swapped from the auto car too.

Uf you could just shut up for a second, I wanna enjoy the ngine sound

Whats pretty cool about a tow bar?

is this swap? or is it original

I don't know why, but i really like, when normal passenger cars are turned into vans! I don't know if these vans are vans from the factory, or someone turned a passenger car into a van.

Stick a battery pack on and hit the air horns, they are loud!!! Rear mudguards are from a conveyor belt 😮

I love the 'Edgar Allen' on the ground outside😂. That caravan is beautiful. Thank you.❤

It’s definitely the wrong interior and steering wheel for the 3500s model.

👍🤩😎❤️🇺🇬

Best sounding doors ever

Always want rover p6 ......had .. 3... S D1.....2O L 2.6 .......3.5 v8

My dad

dogleg gearbox is mercedes

I bought one of these from a colleague (a 1974 if I recall) in 1986. It needed a full exhaust system ...I found a virtually new system from a local breakers yard. I did various service work including a carb strip down and clean. It proved a little too thirsty and decided to sell. I cleaned it up ....I mean cleaned up ....door shuts ...total engine bay....wheel arches....boot stripped out and rubber linings tyre wall blacked. The full interior and carpets shampooed after stripping out the seats. Advertised for sale and not a single response ! Eventually, a motor trader I knew with a showroom offered to sell for me. I took it to him , placed in the showroom where he threw a sheepskin on the seat along with the Haynes manual and left the doors and bonnet open. It sold within 48 hours when a bus driver traded his Mini for it !!!

I agree. Beyond cool.

So fährt kein normaler Mensch LT.... Das Problem iat das Getriebe. Das Einheitsgetriebe. Dem 68/72 PS Motor muaat du dermaßen ins Maul treten wenn du was zu schleppen hast, das ist unglaublich. Die Charakteristik ist aber auch so ausgelegt. 140 NM und Leistung bei 4500 sind Benzinerwerte.... Der will achon gedroschen werden. Nicht ganz zu Ende gedacht, da ja nur 2 dran gehängt, aber sehr sehr sympathisch ❤️
