European Vans

About European Vans

This is a group for all vans made by European manufacturers.

Just so you know what is and isn’t acceptable, there is a list with a few rules below.

Basically it has to be European (or Eastern Bloc), van shaped and the main focus of the picture.

Rules

1. It has to be a van or a derivative of a van, no lutons, no pickups (unless converted from the van body, no chassis cab conversions, no special bodies (unless campers with roof extensions etc), no motorhomes (campers are OK as above), no ice cream vans (unless the van body can still be seen). This list is a guideline and is not definitive - the admins can be fickle. ;)

2. It must be the main subject of the photo (and not an artwork or excessive Photoshop manipulation) or at least a prominent part of it. No streets of cars with a van 4 cars to the right please. ;) Original brochures and/or adverts are fine.

3. Derivatives of European original are OK. Examples that come to mind are the Mercedes Sprinter and US Freightliner/Dodge badge engineered versions and the Brazilian VW Type 2 variants.

4. Models/toys are OK as long as they are easily identified as the real thing.

5. Interior shots are OK.

6. Minibus versions of the van original are OK, buses are not.

7. Vans converted to cars are better posted here.


If in doubt, post it anyway and if we delete it then you will know it didn’t fit the rules. ;)
