[donk vxr]

Hi guys and gals, just wondering who is best for ute insurance, my r8 is with A plan but before i trawl the insurance companys thought you might have some other ideas as this new addition is classed as a commercial..........thanks..

I've not used A plan myself but was surprised when i found out my inlaws peugeot van was insured through them, So yes they do do commercial insurance

That's bloody cheap mate. I'll be having discussions with them when I renew. Mind you...... they must've thought that tray was a milk float, eh Chris!!!

Still, it does represent the ozzy icon more realistically than our "sports" models, I suppose.

Very practical and exactly right for your line of business. How does it go? How about a general description. How many were made, would it be worth more over in Oz if its unique?

You asked for it.....Well its classed as a prototype on the V5, its based on a VU ute which was shipped from Aus in Jan 02 by TWR. The back was cut off and a rear chassis grafted on with a live rear axle complete with alloy tray.It was the delevolpment mule for the re-launch of the one tonner in Aus using the VY body. In other words its a one off. I have only breifly driven it before I took it to Monkfish, due to it having a misfire and brakes not having been used for approx 4 years. However the backend seemed very lively..........have to keep all tools etc in the back at all times. There is slight damage on the bonnet and bumper which I will get sorted, plus I got the last vented bonnet from Roger. More later....
