Kevin - my family are wetting themselves looking at that set up - we love it! Do you use it on the ministry as well?  ;D

did do a return visit on the quad but fear the Bible Teach may get damp round the edges!

I'm telling you (on behalf of Kevin) that's real; he earns good bucks and it goes to prove you don't need to spend gazzillions on a shiny van to prop up your ego.

Where Kevin works in Carrotcrunchershire, he's laughing as his set up gets up all the farm tracks and the custies love it!
It's a game of three halves!

Actually am thinking of a shire horse, if armageddon arrives after my retirement. Just a few houses, no mot hassles. Lovely customer relations bit.

Whether this is a wise decision will be proved this summer: if the ladies generate 2 days work per week via  canvassing & notoriety Of Dune Buggy, then it's a winner & I also will have back up vehicle if quad needs attention.

The buggy did good in the snow but span on inclines

If you could angle it that it was especially adapted for off road and awkward rural applications, but you used it for all your round, i could buy into that as a potential customer.If you could pick up some tv/advert work with it (more probable than you might think there are talent agencies for unusual vehicles and the current corrie wc story line suggests itself..) then you could probably justify it.

Otherwise i think you will set your business back.But i'm an old git so what do i know.

nice one!
Woudnt it be lovely to see real characters finding imaginative/humourous ways of acheiving the same end. Lifes rich tapesrtry would forever expand giving us all a smile on our fizzogs.
If one supplier became dominant I would fear the greyness of a dark old style communist state.

I did think about getting the ghost busters type car, and back packs to get in the papers  ;D. Still unsure if Mad Max would have the same affect  ;D

If they want to talk, they'll have to join the queue like everybody else. No partiality here.

Nothing wrong with a bit of DIY, my trolley is still as good as new after three and a half years.
