That was in somerset, so no use to you, but there must be similar locally i should think.

Not good

We're really spoilt here, the local trailer hire place is fucking awesome, always has them available at short notice etc.

Not a bad business to be in if you have the land for it i reckon!

It's a possibility although the car has not tax, test or insurance so would be a last resort as a car needs to be taxed & insured if the wheels are on the road, doesn't it?
