roy do you have any more info on this law :?:
what date does it start as i do remember you could buy a mini van with rear seats and no windows from new, and i think in the 80's mk1 astra vans were available the same :D

i did look on fords van configurator and i couldnt get it to allow me a panel van with rear seats tho :?

No rear windows on this vauxhall, and it's standard:

The text does mention something about no windows beacause of the law though :?
