The serial number of my 12/2 is 80059 - does this make it late 1979 or early 1980? I suppose it depends how busy they were at the time and how many vans were produced in the period Oct - Dec 1979.

Hard one to call with any certainty but:
So far we have a highest serial number with 80 as the prefix is 80224.
This means 18.66 per month average throughout the year therefore in three months they should have made 56 Safaris.
But as they probably made more for stock in the earlier part of the year your 80059 could have been made in 1979.
If you want to take part in the world record attempt, I reckon we can include you!!!

Brian and Michael
Many thanks for your replies. The old girl is even older than I thought!
I am looking into attending the rally, I will probably stay a couple of days either side of the event - I don't want to be travelling on a bank holiday weekend.
Regards
Elfyn
