Faults:
The rear door fell off.
Lots of faults with the lighting.
Off the road at the moment due to something blowing up in the engine.
Interior indestructible, though the radio/cassette player gave up the ghost while travelling off-road.
It got a little rusty; however, a full bodywork job sorted that one out.
General Comments:
What can I say? This van is absolutely indestructible! It's still got a great interior, covered nearly a quarter of a million miles and will hopefully keep going strong.
My family have used this van for going fully across Europe at least twelve times, and it's always got there coping very well with the horrific Eastern European roads. It's also huge inside, making it great for house moves, and I've camped inside many times.
The performance was never that good, and now top speed is only about 70 mph down a hill with the wing in the right direction. But high speeds is not what it was designed for... all I can say is that it's a great workhorse!

I agree. Sold my LT 35e yesterday and I think I will regret it for many years.
