Any chance of £700 p/w - driving a “less than top of the range motor”
More bling . . less “kerching”
Actually, I’ve always found it the other way around, the best jobs, kit and wages go together. It’s the blokes who drive sheds who have the worst wages.

Would tend to dissagree on that point tbh.
Had a top job for 7 years, good money (not brilliant) but good, easy life and regular runs.
The “best kit” i drove whilst on that firm was a Man, narrow cab high top - spose some on here would call it a fleet motor -started on a Eurotech, might have been a shed but it was my shed- loved it.
So if you dont drive a "top of the range"motor , you drive a "shed"then ?
It would be nice to have a top of the range wagon and good wages
but this is not all ways possible, and to be honest I would rather
have the wages and a job , than a bling truck and have to chase
the money ever month,yes some firms are good and pay good
wages and supply a top of the range,but these are few and far between
