I like cream seats, they help keep the interior heat down. From memory KD plates Liverpool?

Unfortunatly when I brought the van as a disabled van the converter had already sold the bench seat,managed to find a t6 bench seat in Evesham at T6 Parts which complimented the black trim ,Sarara dessert seats are hard to find,did not want a t5 seat as the stitching was different,the velle has currently done11k miles,Paul a friend who I brought it off had it fitted with 5 seats so no room for bench seat,have kept the 5th seat and the disabled lift ,had to change the tax class from disabled to mpv/ car.

Is your van chestnut brown? I've seen quite a few ex mobility vans in that colour including mine!

Is it possible to purchase seat covers for the rear to match the "Sarara dessert" seats? My 2019 Caravelle was a cancelled order. I can not remember what was on offer at that time but if available I would have chosen the desert cream, practical' to my eyes a pleasant change from the normal black or grey.

Try a main VW van centere as when I was looking for a rear bench you had to buy all the parts seperate and get it assembled yourself and the leather skins but not cheap so that is why I went for a bench from T6 parts

White Mk2 is a tagged Harrier,many photos of it on the internet, red on is a South African 1600 sport which had the uprated bodyshell.

I've had a very close call with the wing mirror on our 6.1 Velle and a bigger MoHo just not slowing down, swinging out and thinking they'd shrink like the Knight Bus into the non existent gap between us and the parked cars their side

While we are doing spot the cars from tiny clues is that a Westfield, Caterham or a Robin Hood rear wheel?
