    Atlantis blue with buckskin interior and 308 sweet. What sort of condition is it in? Very similar to this one, matching pair.

    Sandman or not it's got some strength.... 308/4 speed and a good colour.
    Vans.... This is the 2nd time round the block, 40 years later! talk about turning back the clock!

    Tags are sandman, but not vouching for rest of van, best to get someone in the know to inspect in person if in doubt. Good combo.

    tags are 100% XX7 sandman. But the rivets have been removed at some stage. As said you need to inspect the body to be 100% sure its a sandy as a package.

    I had previously thought the same thing when debating another HZ van, but Jason (Stick this) had researched and came to the conclusion that 2000kg is unique to sandman, with a XU4 still having 1950

    sorry my error. i was referring to the 'sandman' status rather than the body type
