This is a message to any R4 friends in Spain or Portugal - possibly France too! If you come across an F6 Acristalada in a scrapyard, I could do with the following parts:
the window knob with the push button lock; ditto but without the lock (photo 2), the O/S vertical sealing strip - the one in the photo is a temporary fix - and the rod that holds the tailgate flap open (but it must be for the 'Sobreelevada' version - presumably longer than the standard version). A couple of each of the knobs would be great!
The other thing I could do with is the cover that goes over the tailgate lock.

Pretty sure I have window locks (both types) in spares that came with my van when bought, will search through tomorrow Andy, 90% sure, but just where did I put them!…
 
I know that feeling!
Thanks so much, Ian - much appreciated.
I think my new van must be very similar to yours; I've always loved the higher Spanish versions.
All the best
Andy

Andy,
Found them, have two fixed, one locking with seals, all functional. Message me and there be with you in a jiffy (envelope).
Agree with you on the higher roof on the fasa versions, think in profile the higher roof balances the extra length on the f6 making it look when passing or at a glimpse closer to the profile of the original f4, the 3 box profile closer to the friendly/familar form. Extra space is always handy too. All the best with latest 4,looks a goodie, Ian

That's brilliant, Ian - thanks a lot, Will pm you.
Yes, I agree about the higher roof; it's amazing how different it looks from the standard F6!
And, yes - delighted with the new R4!20250302_162637.jpg
