Gutted, should have called me back mate, I had the money sat here and like I said if the car was as described- which I have no doubt it was, I'd have had it- you dont drive from Birmingham to North Yorkshire on New Years eve unless you're gonna buy.

Families eh- who'd have em.

I hope when you do sell it - if you do - you dont get some time wasting tosser kicking the tyres for hours on end and picking every little fault they can with it.


Cheers

Jake

PS- Nice van
Hi Jake

It took him a few weeks to tell me he couldnt get the cash mate or i would have called you back

Im sure it will sell when i have had it serviced etc , to be honest im not bothered about selling anyway as my missus has taken to driving it now and the focus is just sat about

still nice though

sorry you got that responce mate

anyway i think you maybee bought the more sensible choice of van , but i just love for looks so for me it just had to be the sport van , even if i tested other makes and found them better i would probs still buy the ford

Still think the sport van looks well. Wouldn't bother me if people tought they were a pikey van. Have yet to see a pikey driving one!! Any van can be a pikey van with a flashin orange light and a set of hub caps!

I thought about the train weight , but then thought fook it as im over weight with my 3500 van when i have a car and trailer on
I got a prohibition ( spelling ) notice last year in my big van , the VOSA fella was great and told me that as long as i say next time that its personal use and nothing to do with my business there is nothing they can do as the laws only stand if its for proffit of gain
