because its immaculate, cheap t+i and i can move motorbikes in it subject to measuring it tomorrow

£500 must be a bargain even just for cheap motoring

ideal cheap movement of quads karts etc etc

i doubt a bike would fit in there to be honest, not a long rear section really.
would be cool as something different though.

i'd be moving quads and crossers mostly, neither are a problem to whip a wheel off quick, i coudl even fit a winch if it doesnt already have on
it does have a 3rd fold up seat

maybe a full length hard top/cabrio conversion lol

insurance full comp is £260 for me with no ncb (had work vehicles for 8 odd years and names on wifes car) so its cheap motoring really with 1.4 tax

now that makes sense at least it has a practical use while looking cool with some mods , there was some knob who runs a escort based site had one for no other purpose than simply driving it around in standard form and looked a total dildo in it

Haha, i have one of these myself, cost me £500 too although isnt as clean as that (just pinky should be ok with a bit polishing) but only has 50k on and drives absolutely brand new, im planning on turning it into a dayvan over the winter, ideal for camping at shows, keep an eye out for it next year during the show season (if i get it done that is - there will be a project thread starting for it early decemeber when im back from work)

you could also use it for dogging as it has more room than the average car
