== Confused about the Freight Rover 200 & 300 Series ==

{{Ping|Davey2010}} Out of curiosity I was trying to look and see if there was any examples of Freight Rover 200 & 300 Series on the web. But all I ended up with is the Freight Rover Sherpa series. Was it at one point were Freight Rovers without the Sherpa name and has a different badge? --] (]) 06:10, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

:Hi {{u|Vauxford}}, Truth be told I've never understood the whole Sherpa thing ..... Some go by 2/3/400 series and others have the Sherpa name on the end, Having taken a look at it would seem the 2/3/400 all had Sherpa on the end .... just the article doesn't show it ?, As I said I honestly have no idea sorry, Thanks, –]<sup>]</sup> 14:07, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

::Understandable. Freight Rover/LDV was always confusing when it comes to there production, might be the reason why they went out of business. --] (]) 15:06, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

:::Very true!, I'd assume the name certainly didn't help them in the end - Would've been more sensible to launch a new "facelifted" van with a new name but there we are, Anyway sorry I couldn't of been more help, Thanks, –]<sup>]</sup> 15:22, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
