Love the chintz, imagine the history the bed has had too!

I take it caravans don't require an MOT? We were following a Dutch one in the Pyrenees and it looked as though the floor had collapsed as it seemed to be touching the axle. Presumably they had put a new floor in above it.

I would quite like the idea of hooking up an old caravan to the Rover, think I'd be getting old before my time though!

I'm definitely in favour. Sadly to get Mrs Mars interested I have to look at something modern with every modern convenience possible. Even so, Ebay has massive modern super vans for £8-10K which still seems to cheap to me.

This is a bit sheddy, but circa £5k gets you something perfectly decent.

Make it a PH caravan. Strip it out, replace the seats with seats from a Matra Bagheera, all the handels from an Allegro, and something else from an MX5. I've run out of ideas. frown

I reckon the Hare is proper fked.

Next week, on Pikeyheads - Tarmac Matters, so it does - the intrepid Garlick takes up bare knuckle boxing and goes Badger baiting.

And whilst we're reading that, the rest of 'em will be round the back nicking your lawnmower

I think it is over priced by about £600.

That Escorts about 600hp, been on the gumball and cracked 200mph on more than one occasion. Bit more than your average chav car...
