get that duck in the driving seat too!

I must admit that duck is quite fetching... if you had a signed van people may have made more notice of the van sign writing too.

Post by: Sir Squeaky on August 06, 2009, 10:12:44 pm: That's because that picture was two years ago!
The van wasn't just clean then, it probably had yet to get dirty! ;D

Van signs were done over 18 months ago Matt!

Post by: Londoner on August 09, 2009, 08:46:31 am: A customer recently offered to give me a car. Its an F reg Volvo 360 and its only got 24,000 on the clock it was offered for my son who is learning to drive. It would need some money spending on it but the insurance quote was too high to make it worth while.
