does stand out  ;)

my only fault I would find is that your website address (and it is good that you have one) is at the bottom when it should be at the top so when parked in a car park you can see it.


thats only a small thing and I dont want to deflate you, bet it feels nice having a new van  ;)

I'm not trying to be picky or smart here, but could you get a stick-on apostrophe?

It should be Mark's - which means that it belongs to Mark.

Marks (without an apostrophe) means the plural of mark.

Missing apostrophes and apostrophes in the wrong place does really irritate some people - my wife, for instance.

here we are the inside of my doblo, as you can see iam running it with my freedom trolly at the mo, but plan to upgrade to two pumps and two reels, the tank is a 300lt which is fine for me as 98% of my work is in town and iam never more than 10 mins from home if i need more. (i have seen these vans with bigger tanks 400lt lay flat). i have two poles one my house to house pole and on the right is my sl-2 for the high stuff,  i find the doblo a great little van ive the 1.3 multijet.

Perhaps the name means MARKS are left behind after carrying out the cleaning  ;D
