    Nice. I'll take one.

    What's the powerplant- not the VW/Audi 6cyl out of the LT, is it?

    Default The M.A.N in my life

    I bought one of these recently; they're 90% M.A.N but have some VW touches where it counts - in the cab mostly.

    In size they're comparable with a 1300 Mog, but lacking the Mog cachet are a lot less expensive as well as being simpler or more conventional in design; maybe like a Canter/Fuso. Full story and driving impressions from the Sahara at the link below if you're interested.

    It's a great 'cab over' resource I've stumbles over here btw - handy for those who don't read German! Been following the many ideas in the "My camper ideas, thoughts, and plans...." which may be where we're heading with the M.A.N.

    Hey Chris,

    Welcome to the forum. It is an honor to see you on our little patch of the internet.

    p.s.- The magazine goes to the printer today. Thanks for all of the hard work on the Libya piece.
