Another lurker surfaces. somewhat ironic that my first post on here is in a bid to trade my van away. bought my lil 92 exceed p25 bout 4 months ago from Tad @ Jauto. This van has run exceeding well since the day I met her, shes been my home away from home.
So, why trade her away? well, seems I can't quite sit up straight in the drivers seat!

heres some pics and a rundown of the work done since entering the country.

Things done:
-water pump
-timing belt tensioner etc.
-all other belts
-new battery
-depo headlights w/silverstar bulbs
-DRL
-new tires (hankook 235/17r/15) with 5000k on them now
-new alternator
-new brake master cylinder

van went for a trip to see Glen @ CCautos few weeks ago. Glen took the time to explain things to me when I didnt quite grasp them the first time. they also adjusted the torsion bars to level the van, installed new front shocks and did a full inspection.

sooo what does everyone think, would you make the trade?

Was going to delete my posting here. Cant figure it out.. Anyway we didnt end up trading, I'm just to attached to my van to trade her even for Ian's, with all its yummy accessories. someone else with a low roof must have a hankering for 6 more inches.

Is there any difference at the front/over the driver's seat of interior height - low vs. high roof? I recall there's some taller folks (6'5") driving low-roofs no prob. I like the high-roof's headroom (sans crystal-lights & mechanisms) in the back when camping though.

The high roof without front sunroof has more headroom than those with a sunroof, about 2" extra. Low roof without sunroof, ?

I had the same problem too. and I'm only 6 feet. A quick fix was to tilt the seat back. I've never smacked my head. Now I still can't see the traffic light right above me, but then I watch the low one on the other side of the road. Guess it pays to be short (er)

Yeah, I just got used to tilting my drivers seat back and watching the lower/side traffic lights. Still find myself wanting to sit straight up on longer rides. Someone told me the high roof vans have a slightly bigger windshield.. true?

bump bump bump, Ian we still need to see some new pics of your beast!
