Got big plans for it, I am going to look at getting a double dog & double hawk box made to fit in with opening to the back door, then the middle section will be for soring all the coats, bags, ferrets and catches of the day ;-)

I will phone around some of the transit box makers to se eif they can do this, just have a worry that it may cost more than the van did!

If the price is too much it will be a weekend job with the saw and making a wooden box.

I am hopeing to make it easily removeable so that should I need to put anything big in the back it wont be a problem.


My Daihatsu sportrak was just a little too small now I have the two dogs! Shame really as it was a really nice car, low mile and very versitile (softtop for summer, loadliner, dog gaurd). Its for sale so if you know anyone point them in this direction ;-) £1500 6 month MOT 12 month Tax

lol i decided that essex wasn't really a 4x4 county! i only ever used my 4x4 once, trying to pull a car out the mud, i had no chance it couldnt pull the skin of a rice pudding!!:roll: :lol:

[BlackHawke]

ant have ya picked the van up yet? how is it? i should be picking mine up tomoz as there was a little confusion on the sellers side he didnt know how to claim the money of paypal.

[LanczSpringer]

yeah got it monday!

the tank was empty, whent to fill it and thought there was a leak in the tank, £76 to fill it, it had best return me a fair few miles for that much!!

its quite nippy glad I got the 2.0 hdi, just got to work out hows best to kit it out now!!

[BlackHawke]

well theres a certain thread on here about alternative forms of fuel!!!!;) :cool: have u started to notice them all over the place now???

[LanczSpringer]

Thought about this but will it work in a HDI engine?
and will custom and excise not target vans for random checks, suppose you could say your running it on organic fuel but thought you need to inform them that you are using it?

[BlackHawke]

i dunno wot the difference is between in engines. as for using veggie it could be a bit dodgy but there are a few petrol stations around that sell the eco diesel which i think smells the same.

still waiting to pick mine up:roll:

[North East Harris Hawker]

i like the van ber greeney name! personally i would hand paint it with some brown stripes army stylee!

[BlackHawke]
