That looks so familiar, I had a double take
Your interior is identicle to Harvey's, the shelf bunk, the front bench and it looks like your pop-top has the same flock lining - not seen it on any other van. There were so many different permutations with the layout it must be quite rare to find two the same now - we must be family

I sold the Courier to buy the Commer, but the owner of the Commer had a very steep price in mind, so had to let it go, bought the Jaguar MK2 instead... then the guy from the Commer send me an e-mail He wanted to sell for half he was asking before.... so ended up with buing the Commer as well... You can imagine how my wife reacted to that... not so good... although she is very happy with Commer she still doesn't understand the whole Jaguar MK2 thing...

What a gorgeous collection[8D][8D]
