I wouldn’t worry KS.

Even a bolted down tank is gonna smash you to bits in a bad crash.

I had a crash in the ice back in 2016.  The only crash I’ve ever had since driving at 17. My tank was 3/4 full and an old man in a saloon slid straight into my near side, the speed was about 50mph when you comobine both vehicles colliding. My tank was absolutely fine.

Van was repaired and back on the road 2 months later. His car was a write off.

I think you need to be involved in a really bad crash/sudden stop to succumb to the tank flying through the bulkhead.

My tanks have never been bolted in.
I’m not worried Zesty, more intrigued. Waterworks and Ionics ( who champion the use of crash tested systems ) have installed their systems into EV vans, but neither have said they are crash tested, just curious as to how they’ve secured them?


Give them a ring and ask ime sure they will be quite happy to explain if they are and how they are fitted especially if they think they will get a sale 😂

Anyone here ever have a tax inspection?


I believe Nigel (rip) got himself in a spot of bother. When he passed away, i googled his full name followed by "window cleaner" to try and find some details of his obituary and the very 1st listing that came up was the hmrc naughty list. For those who are not familiar with this, its a list of anyone who's been investigated and found  to have deliberately defaulted .Your name stays on it , viewable to all for 1 year. I dont know any more details, the list was incredibly long , and not in alphabetical order,i didn't have the time to wade through it. He wont be on it now.

And what’s interesting with most of these  prosecutions is it’s not just for  the last tax year it’s over multiple years  and many are beyond the 5 year tax record keeping period 😂

Because it's deliberate tax evasion.


Makes no difference they still don’t just look at one tax year , it’s not financially viable for them they will look back over many years or they have done from what my accountant tells me and the few people I know that have been investigated . Most people don’t avoid paying tax by accident it’s usually deliberate  ie taking cash and not declaring it ime sure a lot on here do this one , claiming expenses that aren’t legitimate and so the list goes on .

If the was only rated to say 2000kg maybe they thought it too close but i doubt it. Probably more likely they felt it was an unsecure load, i know they can refuse to test if things might move around when on the rollers or maybe if they felt the load made it hard to inspect your suspension or bushes.

Personally i wouldnt take a van with water in anyway but there you go.

I always take out a policy through my accountant about £90.00 per year which would pay for my accountant to deal with an investigation on my behalf.
