Whoever picks up this van will also be inheriting some amazing memories and smiles it’s given to the car community. I hope it goes to a good home and gets the love and recognition it deserves!

Thank you Albert! It’s a shame, if I had a load of off road parking I’d have kept it! But I feel I should only have one vehicle annoying people on my street at a time 😅

Neighbours can be territorial so and so's sometimes. At my last house I always kept all of our cars on the driveway religiously until one night we had a family member stay over and it coincided with me bringing home the company van. Put the van on the road for one night (parked very sensibly away from people's driveways) and there's a message up on the village Facebook asking whoever owns this van to move it or it'll be damaged. Apparently my neighbour thinks they own the road.

If I bought it I would completely gut it, fix the rust and the welded shut sliding door and then reconvert it into a camper and go on adventures in it.
@dadcars3 ай бұрын
I think the sliding door could be saved, it probably just needs the latch replacing

Watch my most viewed video, the Suzuki Lapin review, you’ll understand the channel more then. The reason I replaced this Vito with the AvanTime is because I have children now. But ultimately for those who dont have children this channel won’t make a lot of sense I agree.

Ben, you've found a great niche with DadCars. It may not appeal to everyone. But, your comments show a strong community of car-loving dads, like me, who connect with your content. This dedicated audience can be incredibly valuable, even if it's not the largest. Have you looked at new ways to offer your most loyal fans added value? Investing your time in a smaller, passionate audience can be more rewarding than chasing a broader appeal. Keep up the great work!
