a variety of small businesses and comprised a two-seater cabin with
bucket seats with a stripped out rear section and rear doors. Decorated
in dark blue with a grey roof, black mudguards, black spoked wheels and
silver trim. The gold lettering printed on the sides of the van and on
the cabin doors confirms its use by Daniel Doncaster, Motor & Steam
Haulage situated in Layer-de-la-Haye, Colchester. The van is registered
VE 9822. Inside, the bucket seats, steering wheel and door panels are
moulded in black. The dashboard and dashboard top are dark blue and the
