Given the context of that 1971 film it was assumed to be Amsterdam production, and as a long shot I wondered if it might be off to Canada as /vehicle.php?id=318382 and http://www.enfostuff.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=573 . Any ideas?

Im thinking of some of the south american countries where mk3s were sold for a short time but im not sure at all. Did think of Japan but i cant see why Amsterdam would compress the bodies to the required width when Dagenham was doing it. more investigation needed. -- Last edit: 2011-11-09 16:47:53
