Check out my new wheels

Well, as we all know my van won't fit under the barrier to the car park, the key is temporarily unavailable and it was sunny and windy today... Only one thing for it, time to get a new set of wheels....

So, today I travelled to the beach in style. I have to say, for such an inexpensive vehicle, it handles really well and petrol consumption is amazing, as was the air conditioning!

I love it. How much was it? I think I should get one in a few years when I get my first car. On a serious note, good idea.

Its just like all the best windsurfing vehicles , the kit on top is always worth more than the car beneath

I heard that on one of the first outings the addition of a nice pink towel created some pretty bad handling characteristics and it tipped over on to its side... Do you have AA cover?

Alcoholics Anonymous??? I wouldn't dare drink whilst in control of such a vehicle!

I might it a stereo to it over the weekend though for some in barrow entertainment.

Watch out for the "old bill" AL, is it legal? Just remember I got arrested for cyceling with a surf board, many years ago!!!!!

I have an old petrol lawn-mower that I was thinking of turning into a go-kart maybe I should make a motorised toy-trolley instead.
