I don't think i've ever seen one.
Maybe they suffered the same fate as the cars.

Can mine count as a van as it has no room for back seats... Maybe not, but it's a fine piece of machinery. Like it a lot  |

Maybe there were not many of them built and sold here in the UK. This is very neat too.  |

Someone at the garage around the corner from me (proper little back street-type affair) has a completely bog-stock white one, standard down to the wheel trims and in lovely condition. I was just looking at it the other day thinking how there's plenty of space in that load bay for a serious roll cage...  |

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

most of them got thrashed to death by parts/delivery drivers.
then sold for peanuts and abused even more!!!
i've not seen one for a while.

I had one I sold last year, a few hundred quid with T&T.... the guy who bought it was really happy. Fun little thing but the van part is a pain in the  , I hate doing lifesavers and seeing only metal! |

I suspect that they had less rust treatment than cars - most vans do as they're expected to live short lives.
Nova cars had quite a lot of underseal / seam sealer, but unfortunately not in the right places...
The last new Novas in the UK were vans IIRC - still selling 'em in '95.
