Default 66 for sale??

Hi all,

Do 66's ever turn up for sale these days? What sort of money might a half decent running one cost?

I've been driving a friends Daf 66 recently and have forgotten just how much fun they are, so thought I might look at adding a Volvo version to my little "fleet".

Can't remember the last time I saw one for sale though, so any info gratefully received!

Regards,

They do come up from time to time. You missed one from a moth or so ago.

The 340 with the vario gearbox do also come up from time to time

Grrrrrr to having missed one so recently!! Been told to keep an eye on the Dutch and German sales sites, but I would really rather have a RHD.

Well, will keep looking!

Got one! After some weeks of negotiation, I've found one just right for me, mechanically well sorted and decent enough bodywork at the right price.

Collecting in a couple of weeks - arrangements to be made, complicated, but very happy to be a member of the "Rubber Band Club"!

More details to follow, along with many, (many, many), questions and pleas for help!

Photo's asap - promise.

Default First Pic of the 66

And here he is!

Lots more pics to come once collected.

Some of you may recognise it, well known to the Daf OC I know.

Very pleased to be the latest custodian.

Hahhaa, you are the second person to have asked that!

It is very bad photo editing! (on my part) Shall we say a "discrete" sale.

Best wishes,

Morning Mr. P!

Graeme, that looks like a complete beauty! Excellent purchase.

Get yourself over to Essex for some tea.
