Except that the 2250L of water (inc waste) will go straight back to the rivers and the sea and get drawn up into the clouds and fall as rain.

So the water cycle will continue as it always has ...
It's a game of three halves!

do you know how much nrg it takes for the water board to surply you tap with that much water??? no? thought not. it has everything to do with the ozone. water conservation is one of the goverments top way of preventing global walming  ;D

Uhm, mate.

Ozon layer degradation and global warming are two different things.

    Main article: Ozone depletion

The ozone layer can be depleted by free radical catalysts, including nitric oxide (NO), hydroxyl (OH), atomic chlorine (Cl), and atomic bromine (Br). While there are natural sources for all of these species, the concentrations of chlorine and bromine have increased markedly in recent years due to the release of large quantities of manmade organohalogen compounds, especially chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and bromofluorocarbons.[citation needed] These highly stable compounds are capable of surviving the rise to the stratosphere, where Cl and Br radicals are liberated by the action of ultraviolet light. Each radical is then free to initiate and catalyze a chain reaction capable of breaking down over 100,000 ozone molecules. Ozone levels, over the northern hemisphere, have been dropping by 4% per decade. Over approximately 5% of the Earth's surface, around the north and south poles, much larger (but seasonal) declines have been seen; these are the ozone holes.

I would have to say no, simply because i wouldn't have their permission,

if you wanted to use the close up then go for it, but anything distinguishing then no, like the wid pan shots of the buildings

wat causes global walming?? too many of the suns harmful uv rays getting through the depleted ozone layer. there for they go together hand in hand. the walmer the earth gets the more ice caps melt the smaller the worlds land becomes. theres no getting away from it. its something i feel the goverment will be clamping down on in the future. there already looking in to fitting every uk reserdant with a water meter and those who use over the recomended amount getting a green tax. dont shoot the messenger just read the papers. (the proper ones not the sun!!) by 2012 we will be the greenest country in the world mark my worlds. its a huge vote winner.

ok the ex bt ones have a 1200kg payload, they have plenty of room inside, and if you get a good one it will have loads of racking inside that you can take out or keep, and customize

twin battery's, 3 cigarette lighters, if you get a customized  tank you can take advantage of the auxiliary heater which will eliminate not staring on a cold morning and also frozen equipment inside, it also has a water heater at the back,

the ride is good, little hard on the suspension, i take it easy over bump otherwise you would get whiplash,

downside, lack of power, but i heard they are restricted, but you can take it off, and also chip them which either saves you fuel, or gives you more power, depends how you use the throttle,

comes with a roof rack, not the best if your taking the ladder of alot for access etc, but if you get a light pair, and find a way to strap them on quickly it wont be a problem

you have to be careful for rust, check the wheel arches and around the side loading door for rust under the drainage points if there were a leak of water,

i have found a leak also in my roof which will have to go back to the garge due to the rust,

but apart from that i love it, the mirrors are fab, turning circle is great, easier than driving my estate

if you dont mind me asking, how much did you charge for those jobs and how long did they take you? (just curious)

P.S. you could've taken more than a couple of pics ;)
