“well boss, i thought she would have fitted, good job it wasn’t a low bridge!”
Seems like a good enough thread to brag about my new beast ! 
I bought it off a mate of mine who’s going on to train to be a teacher of some sort. 
I only paid a modest ammount for it and figure on running it for at least 12 months as it still has 11 months left on an R+M contract with the local Iveco dealer. 
I wasn’t particilarly struck on it at first but after putting my business head on I decided to ■■■■ it and see.
Now I’ve had it for a month or so I actually quite like the ol’ gal. 
My next dilemma is whether or not to get it painted or just leave in Murfitts spec and have some vinyls put on.
Decisions, decisions…
That looks like a clean and tidy truck there goaty, they get knocked but earn the same as a 60 or 70,000 pound motor !

The fella I bought it off had done just that. Passenger seat out, both bunks out, flat floor a’la Renault Premium-Privledge, New MDF raised bunk with 2’6 single matress (now replaced ! ), microwave, fridge, flatscreen tele, blah blah blah…
When we shook on the sale I asked him to put the seat and top bunk back in as I do get occasional double man jobs, that and the kids would be mightily ■■■■■■ off with no top bunk to kip on in the school holidays.
It still needs a bit of tidying but apart from that I’m quite chuffed with it.
I had to get my hands dirty this week for the first time in a while.
Both sides as well ! Poor ol’ boy…
