No wheel arch shiny bits and stock wheels.
Hence, maybe there is two of them???

I know I asked Phil once, due to poor records of the importers (there were two depending on the year imported), there were no definite figures between models, but in short not a lot of caravelle's. I can't find the details off hand but there weren't many Syncro's.either (under 1500?)
Yes, I agree there are quite a few little things different to Mark's, so it could well be a second one. I had just bought my bus when his went on the market, would really have loved to get one like this instead of 'just' a GL
And yes, Marks, and this one are optioned up GL's, not Carat's. From the little I have read the factory never made the trim to for RHD bus's to be a Carat. I think Trakka??? made kits that were suitable for RHD bus's.
If you want to cut up a tintop, I'll do you a swap on this one for my GL :)
Beautiful machines, and low km's, wish it was in my driveway.

From what I have read, there was only just over 2500 RHD syncros ever made.
That doesnt leave many for overseas RHD countries like the UK, Thailand etc..
