I drove an almost identical one of these 35 years ago, VPH 27S, full-time for over two years The only difference was that mine had a semi-automatic gearbox. My memories of it are that it had fantastic brakes, steering was prone to wandering, and the engine used to get really hot going up long hills. We used to class these as being a heavyweight (compared to Fords and Bedfords)
