    Despite some body issues, you must be tempted WB? Out of interest on the thin tag the "L" where I'd expect the engine code on HQ-Z tags to be 202, did the position or code change for WB?

    308 in a WB had WT as the engine prefix so "L" would be incorrect as the 308 identifier and like you said it points to a High Compression 202 it should be a "T".
    But there is no disputing the L31 on the other tag.

    Yeah not sure on that thin tag.
    Not tempted really. I thought I would be, but Malachite? It looks like an army staff car.

    Just adding that WT only in commercials, 11WT in Statesman which obviously is as common as.

    You hear a lot about 308 WB utes someone has seen. Where there 308 ambo tonners?

    No panelvans have showed up I'm guessing.

    Mauser.
    Yeah I have heard of a couple of one tonners but no vans. It makes me wonder now if the urban myth that they did a run of L31 utes at the end of production (like LE two doors) might have actually happened. Supposedly a select few dealers got one.
