Hi guys,
We had a look at the Nissan NV200 and the VW Caddy last week but my dad decided they're a bit too small for him, so we called into the Ford dealership this afternoon to see the new Transit Custom. After trading his current van the price isn't bad, so when we're back in Swansea this weekend we'll ask whether our local Ford dealership can better it before ordering from them.
Thanks for the help!
RE Santa Pod...
It would have been good if it wasn't so cold - apart from it being very unpleasant for us, the vehicles suffered more reliability problems than usual and many just couldn't get enough traction.
It's staggering how much fuel these things use: one Top Fuel couldn't engage reverse after the burnout and although they could have pushed it back to the start line they had to shut it off because it wouldn't have had enough fuel to complete the 1000 ft as it was idling for too long!
