Combos only started to be made in Spain in 2007 so this has to be made in Portugal: http://www.manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/artikel/a-426313.html Link to "media.opel.com" |

I think I deciphered this one correctly, VK54WEW. I'll wait to pull more data as I am not sure this is a 'Crew Van'. If someone else can verify the plate for me that would be amazing ![]() Trim 2000 CDTI CREWVAN SWB H/C Capacity 1686 cm³ W0L0XCF0653004257 W0L = Adam Opel AG/Gmbh or Vauxhall Motors Ltd.

I believe the check is correct, maybe converted after purchase into a full panel van? ![]() |

^ apparently Crew Van could be optioned with or without windows according to dsl/sandie's post here. /vehicle_323226-Vauxhall-Combo-2002.html Also, alex check out the VIN. A normal panel van has 25 as the body style and this one has 06 indicating a wagon variant which is what the Crew Van should have; I believe. Link to "www.fleetnews.co.uk" - confirms that the seats are foldaway. -- Last edit: 2024-05-07 04:16:02 |

This is interesting. I didn't know there were crew vans with paneled windows, must be pretty uncomfortable to drive in ![]() |

I'd been musing about this one because of the door on the driver side. The linked article says normal van has option of 1 or 2 extra doors, but I guess driver side was rare - only useful if a big bulky load or piece of kit which needs access from both sides to insert or extract; would actually be a disadvantage for a postie or parcels delivery where loads are just chucked in haphazardly, as things could fall out into the road when the door's opened. So a driver's side door might be a clue for a probable crew van, although not proof. And when mirrored, it can also be applied to LHD Opel Combos. |
