Strangely I had wanted to take it to 999,999....but the damn thing reset to zero after 699,999 !!

Just bought another van the same as it to use instead. Have both sitting here now lol. The big miles one is a little rusty in places as it had some crash repair shortly after I got it and a wanker drove into the back of me. But the repair place just did an average job, despite me insisting they seal the fuck out of it as I will be keeping it.
They didn't...and I should have dealt with it earlier.

Although it's still a great van, just hasn't moved in 2 years now as don't do courier stuff anymore

Lots of modern vans are shit though, all based off the same shitty French platform or engines. I've a Berlingo/Partner through work now and it really is truly and utterly shite.
Big outside, small inside, no room for the driver, seat doesn't go back worth a fuck, anything you set on the double passenger seat falls into a mysterious underworld never to be found again.
There are 2 half assed drinks holders on the floor in the middle....like WTF ? Anything you try to set there is unreachable, and will fall and spill anyway.
Door pockets are miniscule and hard to reach and the roof tray will barely hold an A4 sheet !
And it's one of the most gutless things I've driven in the last 30 years !

the only positives I can think of.....is I don't pay for it, it has aircon, cruise control.....not really a lot else.
