Re: My 11 build
Anyone know which model van is needed to collect the kit from the factory?

I used a trailer, and a big American pickup.
The kit was in a Westfield 11 sized crate.

LWB Transit should do it. Best to check with the factory.
I recently collected Splat’s old rear from a paint shop an hour up the road. It fits, placed laterally and inverted, in the back of my Skoda estate! Who’d have thought it!

Re: My 11 build
Just to clarify; my rear end is neither old, nor in need of paint. Nor has it ever been upside down in the back of a truckie’s car.
How very dare you

Yes, that's the polished body option from the factory.
