Buy , when you can afford;  rent or lease a wreck, not a trailer,  Shel.  

[AuRavelling79]

From Zummerzett? Iz you from Froooome, Taaanton, Bridgwaaaaater, or Mine'edd?

[jaykie]

Jeff1 is a berlingo too small.

Chris

[alanwilson]

You can buy a decent little partner/berlingo for less than a grand - get a system into it and it'll make a fine little work van.

[jeff1]

Shell was born in Taunton as were her 2 sisters and her Mum, we moved to Yeovil years ago

Jeff1 is a berlingo too small.

And don't forget all the equipment I'm giving her? and all the help and back-up she'll get.

Still not buying her a van, I hate the things, I hate getting stuck behind vans, people carriers and 4x4's, so I'm not adding another to the road

if you got 12 pillows as presends I would say either sleep with one eye open or as for most woman give her what she wants life is easier this way

[jeff1]

She has a husband who is the manager at our local build base, I'm sure he can afford one for her, her brother-in-law is the manager at our Morrisons, her in-laws are solicitors and are loaded, I'm sure one of them will help. 

I'm a mere window cleaner struggling and scraping just to make ends meet.

[jaykie]

The reason i asked about the belingo is because a bloke up the road from me has one that he said is worth £1500 but i can have it for £900 but i think its a bit far for you to travel.

Chris

Thanks Chris
I'll let Shell know as soon as she gets home, like you said though, it might be a bit to far for her.
Many thanks.

[s.w.c]

so what van are you going to buy her then jeff,

[jeff1]

so what van are you going to buy her then jeff,

She's buying herself a Dispatch I think Smithy 

[groundhog]

Stick to your guns Jeff! It will do her good to have to buy her own van, you don't want to hand it all to her on a plate!! And tell her from me that if she gets a second hand dispach, to get the cam belts changed asap!!! I didn't change mine because the garage said it didn't need doing until 90,000 mls, it broke at 60,000mls and cost me 2 grand!! and a week struggling to work out of my wifes mini!!!!

Best post so far  Thanks Grey 

If the kids buy there own vehicle or what ever, they will have more respect for it and treat it accordingly.
Thanks for the tip on the belt, I'll make sure she gets it changed, I had the same thing happen to me, good Job it was a company vehicle, it cost them over £1000 to get it fixed and that was over 11 years ago.

[MissyShell]

Thanks Smithy but he aint budging!I dont want him to either as he is giving me his business equipment everything its my fault I cant drive the trailer or else id have that to im sure but the money im gonna be earning will be more than enough to pay say about £150.00 a month so still looking but cheers for support!!!

Thanks Smithy but he ain't budging!I don't want him to either as he is giving me his business equipment everything its my fault I cant drive the trailer or else id have that to I'm sure but the money I'm gonna be earning will be more than enough to pay say about £150.00 a month so still looking but cheers for support!!!
[/quote
well its not your fault you cant drive with the trailer, there is a nac to it and its not easy to reverse with them, your old man should know that, and with that in mind should understand why you need a van, but i cant see why jeff cant buy you a van even if you pay him back for the van, drive in trailer is a art, i can understand why jeff don't want to buy a van out right for you but jeff you could help her get one and come to some arrangement just cause you can cope with the trailer and its not the smallest trailer neither jeff.

[Ian Lancaster]

yeah

Women and trailers dont go together so splash the cash jeff

Woman and cars don't go together, give them a van and were all doomed

Read in today's paper that women in Saudi Arabia are not allowed to drive.  Apparently it's 'un-Islamic'.

I merely report, I'm making no comment

from what ive seen of women drivers most of them cant drive
should get your daughter a three wheeled bike and a trolley to pull behind her

[MissyShell]

from what ive seen of women drivers most of them cant drive

I was trained by my Dad    I can do 4x4 cross country driving, he even trained me in escape and evasion tactics, now if you would like to have a driving competition aginst me, give me a call but make sure you bring loads of money to pay your bets. 

'O' I do agree with the comments most women drivers, you don't want to hear what my Dad shouts when he's behind the wheel

[jeff1]

Shell is no woman driver, its a white knuckle ride all the way  I close my eye's some times 

[s.w.c]

but you showed her how to do it, i suppose old age jeff nerves ain't what they use to be, so you know advanced driving tactics what other secrets you got hidden, i got the please of advance driving tactics when i worked for a private security firm in woking some years back. but never got to use them on the road, but came in handy in grass track racing mini circuit.

It isn't nerves  its Shell's driving, there are some things a Dad wish's he never taught his daughter to do 
I was trained in the forces with advanced driving, that's all I'm saying  it does come in very handy some times though 
As you say its very handy also for cross country driving, and for turning in a narrow road
