Isn't the Internet amazing
Seems like the RV50 is also known as a Van Van, they were built as from the early-70's.

I don't know much about bikes either, but I do know the Honda DAX 4-stroke monkey bikes are very collectable, so the same probably goes for this one.

Hi Pine,
If its for sale and you dont go for it I would be keen. If it goes and its got papers its probably worth around R5K, if not I would say around half that?

Perhaps, so in future we'll refer to
- a Beemer as an A$$hole BMW
- a Taxi as HiAce Coffin
- a Baja as a VaderBug
?

Hi Webster, as for now it is not for sale. It does not have papers. I have first dibs on it, but I'll let you know what happens. The owner is kinda sentimental about it. Will stay in touch.
