This is my 2nd Ram in the last 2 years, no particular reason for having it other than I love these trucks and of course it has a V8. It's a late 2001 (Dec) model originally from Texas, imported in 2005 and has only covered 6,000 in the UK. Condition is superb and has never been a working truck and looks like it's never seen a salty road.

Awesome stuff, I bet your neighbours had a bit of a double take when they saw it on the drive for the 1st time.

Hi yes the Aygo looks tiny compared to the ram, even my 5 series does.

Well that's just ridiculous, far too big for our roads. How many gallons to the mile? Do you have to take out a mortgage to drive it? My road tax is £0 on my iDrearyBox and I get 200mpg (even though I paid £10k for it and do 20 miles a week).

I am of course jesting - I approve!

The Aygo is not a separate car, it's what the Ram has instead of a jack and spare wheel.thumbup

One of my neighbours used to have one of these. They definitely have "road presence" !!

He had a replacement exhaust fitted to give it a bit more "rumble" - sounded awesomesmile

It's not too bad, it's quite fun being LHD. My previous Ram was longer!
