Worth a separate listing - Possibly with a better picture if the front is visible in a later frame? -- Last edit: 2006-07-09 11:45:48
Pierre ◊ 2016-04-22 02:45	I've owned two 400Es: Ambassador Blue 12/15cwt 3-speed van (422 FYR) and, more recently, a Martin Walter caravanette similar to the background model shown. The 400E's load was rated at 12/15cwt, vs. 10cwt, and 4-speed models seemed rare. Alas, the 3-speed was so undergeared it started to get short of breath over 50mph.
Pierre ◊ 2016-04-22 03:23	I'll read that again - apologies: 10/12 cwt and 15cwt the two ratings were, the 15cwt van being the more popular.
