The van is a 1961 model and has been used on film sets, indicating it has seen considerable use. While the last MoT in 2017 had no advisories, the mileage is low for its age. Given its age and history of use, it likely has some wear and tear not visible in the description, thus fitting a 'Very Good' condition.
