1997 Chevrolet Astro Van AWD LT

Walkaround and Test Drive 1997 Chevrolet Astro Van AWD LT – Vortec 4.3L V6, 190 HP 4L60E transmission with all-wheel drive This nearly 30-year-old van is still going strong at 347,000 km (217,000 mi). Surprisingly, it has very little rust and has never needed rust repairs—just regular undercoating. A paint job has been done at some point. About this "Conversion" This is another example of a crazy Danish tax exemption available for certain vehicles. If a car, van, or truck has 10 or more seats (including the driver), it is classified as a bus. That means there’s no registration tax—only 25% VAT. In contrast, the normal tax on passenger cars, including VAT, is around 180% (yes, really!). To put it in perspective, the price of this 10-seater conversion is approximately one-third of a normal 7-seater! Some restrictions come with this great deal, though: A bus driver’s license (Category D) is required. Annual inspections are mandatory. On the plus side, the road tax is significantly lower—only around $120/€110 annually, compared to about $1,200/€1,150 for a regular 7-seater! To qualify as a 10-seater bus, some modifications were necessary: Emergency exit signs were added. Window-breaking hammers for emergencies were installed. A fire extinguisher was fitted. As shown in the video, two folding seats under the homemade tray in the rear make up the last two seats! EDIT: Unfortunately, the footage showing the rear seats in operation was lost—sorry about that! CHECK OUT this video and read about another true story about our car-hating "IRS" in Denmark (IRS in Denmark is named SKAT, "skat" means tax , but it also means "treasure" and "darling" in Danish!!)    • 1997 Chevrolet Camaro Z28
