Agree, great looking van and excellent colour choice. Looks a lot darker than mine though.

Strange, you’ll have to check if the paint code is LH8Z. Yeah the black cabin makes a big difference mate, I put it off for ages but wish I hadn’t now.

Hi Tim, I got mine from Highstone too

Just read your post regarding it being nippy with the 150bhp remap
I thought I’d post and let you know that mine was also advertised as that but I noticed a few flat spots and also doubted the figure, so I took it to a local guy I use and had it remapped by him, it’s now running 178bhp perfectly and is a lot better on fuel

That explains why it looks darker. Stunning, looking forward to some more photos mate.
