    Benwho427 sounds like it to me, Jasmine yellow colour and tan interior have a look at our van which is your colour - has it got courtesy lights, and what number is the tyre placard on the inside of the glove box, number is on the bottom right hand side..

    Cheers Jennie and Rodney

    Peter it is an HZ so it wont have GTS guards - they ceased at the end of the HJ.

    Once again the numbers look good, but the more info you can get the better you will be in making a decision on buying if you want a genuine Sandman.

    Make sure you check the Chassis number on these cars that the numbers match the plates. Chassis number is found on the front drivers side rail next to the steering box.. take a rag or brush to clean off any excess grease and dirt.

    Well it's not a Kingswood because your number is hz8wm70... if it was hz8wN70... that would designate it as a Kingswood.


    Also I suggest you remove your phone number from your post, this is the internet everyone can see it.

    I'd be a little wary as XU3 Sandmans are very rare, but it could well be. The full length headlining is a pretty good indicator that it will be.

    It definately has the buttons when you open the doors about 6 inches up on the front inside door pillar.they seem to pop out when you open the door with some sort of spring mechanism and small lights turn on near where feet go..it has a number on chassis that matches tag on drivers side was very hard to find as theres a fare bit of dirt and grease build up..thanks peter..
