Well I was going to see Adi this week to show off the Delica but we hit some diesel and spun off a roundabout hit a lamp post went down a six foot ditch and into a crash barrier.

Both Jules, myself and Lollop the dog walked away, but the van's written off!

see below

And Adi

:yikes: Heck mate, hot having a lot of luck now are you! Hope that you fin what your after, let me know if you find a few of them as I might be interested as well. How much room is there inside, as in shoulder room. Some of the MPV types are a tight fit for me, I couldn't even close the door of a townace I tried!

Hope that the travels go ok, it's good that you're just getting on with it :super:

We'll get together when you get back, I'm just in Chorley.....down the road, we should have got together before now :roll:

Glad to hear that you and your family are alright Dave ... that could have been very nasty indeed. Your insurance company must love you (mental note to ask you who they are so I can make sure they aren't ours :wink: )

But Dave, I gotta tell you that if that had been a Landy, some T-Cut would buff that damage out :eek:):

Glad to hear you're still coming down!!!

Glad to hear you and your's are all OK. Shame about the car, but that can be replaced, you & Jules can't.

Hope your luck changes for the better soon mate.
