For average 3 storey work a 25/26ft pole will usually reach fine. Some older buildings though will need more. I am using a 40ft pole below to do 3 storey work on an older home.

I stepped back using the same 40ft pole with the attached G-Fit gooseneck and using the cut-outs in the parapet it just reached the bottom of each window.

It's a Jag XK-R couldn't stretch to the Aston, looks much the same though. The boot fits a custom made 250 litre tank with pump and switchgear. The space behind the seats holds a drip tray and hose reels, I then put my compact poles on the passenger seat. And you should see how I've kitted the Mini out !

Yes, it is an S2.  It's propped against the window so it makes it look straighter!
