Was the Mini van originally used as a grocers van or for carrying bread or milk?  |

Mini pickups and vans are very rare now and worth a lot of money.Looks like a nice example there.

I wouldn't be concerned about the history of it any buyer (should it be for sale  ) will be more concerned IMO about the condition. Were are you going to see another one with a canopy fitted must be rare.  |
