Bought on eBay, it was originally a 2002 reg Peugeot Expert van, that had been converted for wheelchair use.
This meant that the floor was lowered, windows were added, single seat installed, wheelchair ramp at the rear (with small tailgate) and wheelchair safety belts.
I liked the idea of the extra storage, the rear barn doors and of course having the windows was a great advantage. The overall height is under 2M which means that it will fit in most carparks and will qualify for the "car" rates on the French toll roads.
A few small fixes were needed. The gear stick gaiter was falling to bits, and was replaced from eBay. The sliding window trims were seized and filled with green moss. I contacted the company in Manchester that made the windows, and they were able to sell me new trim to get the windows moving again.
