Very wise, good to have a voice of reason in the other seat, especially when conditions are less than ideal.

I ordered some LED bright white lighting strip 5m to add better lighting to the back of my tow van and mobile workshop , really impressed for £7.95 delivered better than any 12v strip light and 100% brighter might order some more to do the other half of the van

Have you got plastic Windows in lee?
Or do you still have the glass.
I notice that you have door pulls on the doors and no winders.
Are those the same door cards that I got of you....It making me think about getting them fitted
