Thanks Colin
Got a big insurance job come in for Monday cleaning new tennis courts and outdoor areas, maybe indoor areas affected by contaminated water. The 3000psi will come in handy on this job, never done anything like this before (but they pay well). Had to re-arrange 3 carpet cleaning jobs.
Could of done with getting familier with machine first. It's alot bigger than my Steamway 9100LX.

If any bodies interested there could be a vauxhall movano 2.5 and a Steamway 9100LX for sale very soon. Pics on my website.

Cheers
Mark

Hi Mike
I can keep most of the signage on the van. I was one of the first fast trackers, i was in the first group of about 8 fast trackers when it started nearly 9 years ago, i think out of that group there is only 3 of us stilll carpet cleaning. Iwill change the offers now.

Alan, i will be looking at around £3500 for the lot, it will be ready to work, i put £80 worth of diesal in it the night before i got lincolns van. I have got to wait until all the paper work is sorted out because we are dealing with the lease company, its taxed till next june and M.O.T till next feb, good tyres. Done alot of work but i have looked after it and spent £800 on having bearings belts and other bits renewed in march by alltec.
Got to go to work now

Mark,
You got it! Absolutely brilliant, I know you have thinking about taking the leap and mulling over a NEW 'T' Wave set, well youve as good as got one for a little more than half the price, well done. I think Lincoln himself would be well chuffed that it went to you. I will give you a ring shortly about what we discussed last time I saw you down at Alltec.
Dave.

Ps. Anyone looking for a well maintained, well looked after TM and van, at a good price, dont miss out give Mark a call.

Well done Alan

Now you can focus all your energies in one direction, with a bit of advertising you should recoup your outlay on the run up to Christmas.................It's an ill wind!!!!as the saying goes.
