Details: This is former 5673VW, one of the batch of 12 high-roof Volkswagen Transporter vans leased in early 2005 for use by London Buses. Despite now being over 4 years old most remain in daily use but two were returned earlier this year. The high-roof design makes the type ideal for conversion into a camper van, and a very smart job was done on 5673VW. Note the addition of windows in the sides and rear, and the rebadging as an AMDRO ANGEL! One thing the van did not get was a full repaint, and the LBSL roundel is apparently still in situ on the roof. These pictures were kindly sent in by its new owner, having been photographed on its maiden 'mission' to a country music festival in Anglesey on 9th May 2009. |

Ray | 5673VW and the other sold vehicle (5676VW) were based at Olympic Way, Wembley which is often devoid of vehicles these days. Is there a new base, for the Hondas at least? | Fri 19/06/2009, 14:49 |
