a good site, though to rank highly you probably need more search keywords peppered in the text on

each page, especially areas you cover, this will make it far more relevant when people search those

terms

Derek,

State-of-the-art £50,000 Van Mounted Cleaning System. Powered by a massive 1.6 litre fuel injected engine

You must have had your Boxxer TM built to your own specs.  I also think that at £50,000 you have been taken for a mug.  You paid way to much. :o

What happens if someone wants to see the 1.6 litre fuel injected engine???

Richie.

i did tell mark when i saw this on my web site and he just said who doesn't exagerate.

lets face it, how many web sites say they have the best equipment going.
 

ps... if you add up all my investment in this business, i wouldn't get much change from 50k so that bits true ish. ;D

I would change it.

It's very specific and you don't really need to lie to make your point about your equipment. What if a jealous competitor reorted you to trading standards and you ended up i the local paper?

Does any other profession stipulate how much their equipment is worth? Dereks certainly isn't the first C/C to mention how much the equipment's worth! You're perhaps opening yourself up to the thieving scum bags that won't think twice about knicking your van and selling the lot for a ridiculous price.....

Or worse still, a jealous C/C who only has a porty ::) ::) ::)

Just a thought Derek, not an envious stab ;D ;D ;D

My 18hp engine is about 550cc so your 21hp is would guess at being 750cc max

1600 divided by 750 = ?

So it's less than half the size of a 1600

There was a thread ages ago and Dave Liahona posted the HM caparison between the Spitfire and a high end portie, this is where the 20x the power line came from, or prompted it.

So you could quite reasonably say that.
