1965 Citroen H-Van H Panel Van review from UK and Ireland
"A fabulous vehicle with a near perfect one tonne (plus) load carrying capability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As it has the characteristic suicide doors that add to its charm, there have been occasions when a quick entry to the driver's seat has resulted in the indicator switch being broken. The vehicle has a small oil leak coming from the engine-transmission join, but my father (an engineer) says this should not be a surprise!
Rebuilt from bare metal and with many panels replaced or refurbished (Lulu) is in good nick and is a very reliable transporter of the family's collection of mountain bikes on days out.
General comments?
Possessing bags of character, if not streamlined coachwork, the H van has given myself, my family, friends and casual onlookers a great deal of pleasure. Every family should have a folly!
