EXTERIOR
This amazing Maestro Van is finished in Champagne Beige, (Code LMK), and is incredible. It has been beautifully preserved with all the panels being original and rust free. The previous owner has commissioned some detailing work in order to maintain the remarkable appearance of this van including minor paintwork to the sills and bumpers. The immaculate large clear side panels have remained free from any signwriting and offer a perfect opportunity to promote and advertise a business. No scuffs or dents and with all the trim and badges correct and present this van has had a lucky escape from the normal abuse. An unbelievable example of this now ultra rare 1980’s van.
INTERIOR
Finished in Tobacco Brown velor, (Code CNC), the seats are like new. Standard for the 500L, the brown fitted carpets add a touch of luxury and again are spotless. The dark brown dash complements the interior with all switchgear intact, operational and in first class order. The rear load space is huge offering 85.8 cu ft of usable capacity with no dents or rust, and only very minor scuffs to the flooring. This workhorse has led a very privileged life!
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The famous 1.3 litre A-plus engine needs little introduction and is renowned for its driveability and excellent economy, this low mileage example being no exception. The 62bhp feels spirited, is quiet and offers very low maintenance costs. The VW derived four-speed gear box is excellent. All of this is housed in an immaculate engine bay. A strong and reliable classic commercial vehicle.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES.
Simple 5J X 13 steel rims with perfect Austin centre plastic caps fitted. Four quality Goodyear 165S R13 tyres fitted retaining excellent tread. The hydraulic brakes with servo assistance and a rear pressure limiting valve offer ample stopping power.
HISTORY FILE
Purchased new by Mr FW Crozier owner of Windhill Antiquary and supplied by Smith’s of Buntingford in Hertfordshire, this van has an incredible history file. Serviced by the supplying main dealer until the very recent mileage of 21,139 miles this van must be a one off, and still retains the original dealer number plates and key fob. Subsequent service stamps from S J Tokely Repairs confirm the full service history up to 2006 at 22,817 miles. A collection of MOT certificates help to confirm the mileage. A very rare survivor ready for shows, as an advertising tool or a daily driver classic.
MOT November 2013 and HPI clear.
