Spot the Elgrand....
View attachment 40998

Was it a black one that has not made it round the track yet,? ,,or was it a white one and you needed a faster shutter speed to catch it in the frame,,

Well done all,glad the weather was kind to you,vans as usual look awesome.pics were obviously taken before the slower non white ones managed to arrive.

I've said from the start that I want either a white or silver one.... My preference now is white!!

Hey
Shame we didn’t bump into each other. Was there with my 7yr old boy. We drove up in our “fresh off the boat” silver Elgrand. Was parked at the “not show ready end” (blue park)
You could have seen what it’s like to have one untouched (yet)
Have had it a month and it drives like a new car. Interior is like new even still had plastic cover over the doorsteps.

Hi El Nic. What a shame!!

I would love to see a silver one in the metal.

How are you finding your new bus??

Congrats by the way!

Do you have any pics of it at all??

Yeah love it so far
For us as a family of four it’s just in its element.
first week took it camping
Second week went to the beach
Third week spent cleaning and fiddling about, new air filter, wiper blades, and a lot of washing.
forth week took the wife to market. That is she ran a stall locally and the Elgrand looked the part amongst the market trader vans if a bit flasher than the rest.
Only got a few picks so far as a common thing to find on the silver ones is the plastic trim on the bottom sides has a small amount of paint thinning from the sun inJapan. Got the primer/paint/laquer off eBay using the paint code found in the engine bay. Just got to find the time now
