It'll cost you 50 quid to hire a mondo van from budget for 24 hours (Interior Length: 3.1/4.2m) another 50 for diesel to brora and back (killie to brora, 500 miles round trip)
that an option?
Cheers,

£50 for 500 miles ,when was the last time you used a diesal pump?,
erm this morning. I get 500 miles for about 70 quid and I thought you could get better mileage than my monster truck.
But you're right I should have carefully checked the manufacturers specifications to ensure my fuel consumption figures were as accurate as possible. The Volkswagen Crafter panel van with high roof. (medium wheelbase and long wheelbase) may have a 163PS 2.5L TDI and gets 35.8 mpg. According to google maps, Kilmarnock to Brora is 246 miles each way so you'll use 13.74301676 gallons of fuel. This equates to ~62.46 litres. According to the receipt in my pocket, diesel is 106.9 at my local garage so that comes out at £66.76 so fair dos, I was out by 17 quid my apologies.
Gill,
Hope you manage to get your canoe, I look forward to seeing you on the water sometime.
Cheers,

Tisk Tisk. I hope your canoeing skills are better than your arithmetic Alan... And from what I remember....
Sorry couldn't resist...

I know, I know, shocking, and you can't talk about my crap canoe skills as the proud inventor of the g-stroke or giggle stroke
