Local tip have banned any type of van entering, I was trying to get rid of nothing which had nothing to do with commercial activity.
So I went home and put it in the boot and drove there with boot open, the blokes down there couldn't believe it but couldn't argue with it hehe


Had to use mine to get a puncture repair done on the Touareg.... 20" rim and tyre was a bit of a squeeze

Always loved the practicality of my 02's and use whenever possible.





People loved seeing me tow my kiosk behind the 02.

Moved home in 2013 and used the 996 - only car back then - for about 20 trips to the tip.

Sorry - no photos.

Same 996 carried a cat and a Rottweiler plus 2 guitars and a small amplifier.

I am sure 6 crates of beer don't count.

I'd be shocked if that's legal.

CL stats:

Perm. towing capacity, braked (kg) 2100 kg
Perm. towing capacity, unbraked (kg) 750 kg

Good chance the trailer is plated over 2100kg
For this application that doesn't matter.

No pics, but I got a ladder and a kitchen bin in a Chimaera boot.
















Ok, it was a foldable ladder.

3 seater sofa in an RS6 - I haven't yet worked out a quicker way of moving one, apart from dropping it from 40,000 ft.

Seeing some of the pics so far.....went to the tip in the tiny Fiat, some cut up wood filling

the tiny boot, which wouldn't close, put 1 bag of garden rubbish on the passenger floor.

Also been to the tyre shop.....drove there with 2 scrap tyres in bin liners on the passenger seat

and drove home with wheel and new tyre on in boot, won't close again and the other on the passenger

seat.

Some years back a place I worked was demolishing a building and various bits of office furniture were going spare.

I had to fold the seats down in my 306 to get an office swivel chair in, but a colleague managed to get a swivel chair, 2 upright chairs, and a table in his Plus 8. hehe Not having a roof does make for a decent sized payload
