My van is still in the UK down in sussex and is a 40 mile a day girl. Don't know that much about it other than it is a UK original Devon Caravette, oldest surviving at the moment, although almost not the oldest surviving as some pillock pulled out in front of me and it is now undergoing a bit of minor repair work.

Hello from Germany.
Here are some facts about my 68 Bay.

I found the car maybe 4 or 5 years ago in Austria, it`s a "rustfree" unwelded, first paint (with a lot of patina and some touch ups) Kombi.
