Just seen the new tailgate van, Hef.....Lovely, as per my expectations! :lol:

I don't think you'll have any problems selling it for the price you were thinking about..... a properly put together van, with a bit of thought and consideration gone into it.

I still love the pure grey one though! :D

Thank you guys for the great comments! Very much appreciated!

@dub_nutz wow what a small world fella, yes the cossie is is a real rare find and coming along nicely! Converting my Caddy to R32 power was the best thing ever! It’s so much fun and suits the Caddy brilliantly! Soon to have 4 motion and turbo which will be good i think! Any help you need if considering the conversion give me a shout

Hey, sorry for necroing an old thread but your grey van is an inspiration for me. My soon to arrive van *will have* to look similar in the future.

Are the rims Vossens?

That are stronger wheels than oem vossen. OEMS ifgtr 20” 8,5J et45 and 10J et45. Here under a photo of the Caddy that Hefin had as inspiration. My previous 1.6TDI. If you want a set of these wheels feel free to contact me.

Like Ron RK says my friend they are Vossen copies ... not as strong as Vossen but they are good quality i think. Vossen sadly do not make a 10 inch rear rim only OEMS do. Thank you for the compliment about my van its very much appreciated

Vossen is a bit weaker wheel Hefin if they hit a curb a piece aluminium jumps out of the wheel while OEMS get dented.

Oh boy. I'm not sure if these will withstand 700+ kilos then. I hope its available in 17", hungarian roads aren't exactly kind for larger wheel sizes...
