Found this on gumtree. A mini panel-van with what looks like a rear-seat conversion with a mini-matic id plate YMA2S4

Looks a bit dodgy to me, peoples comments

It says it's an Estate but to me those rear windows look like they have rounded corners like a normal panelvan.

looks like a std van as it has the roof vent by the looks of it the estate versions didnt use the vent. The windows on the estate are squared off in the corners so its definatly a van. I recon its one with a aftermarket back seat conversion and the auto fittwd at some time would have to be a 67/68 with that prefix and 998 engine no

.

Yeah the windows are too curved to be a countryman etc. but does appear to have a rear seat, ie a conversion from the day. but the plate appears to be from a matic sedan. So this is the dodgy part :wink:

I think I looked at that car in 1996 or 97. If its the same car it was an aftermarket rear seat in an ordinary van with aftermarket sliding aluminium side Windows.
