I just looked back to the first pictures. Is the front subframe with coil springs something that was fitted by the camper conversion company? I obviously wasn't paying attention because I thought all Mk1 and Mk2 had the I-beam front axle and leaf springs as mine did, although they were LWB, of course.

The van in front is a Transit. It might be my Mk7 - follow the trail of rusty water: Diary of an Ordinary Van
