Thats a great thread for building a dog van! They are great looking hounds, bet it smells nice in the back when they wet!

We have a standard Schnauzer called Kaiser (after Bill not the Chiefs!) Who is probably going to get a chum next year.
This is Kaiser...............

The missus loves him more than me, thats why the van was a good idea cos he gets plenty of room instead of these modern day so called estate cars that are shite! What ever happened to proper estates like Mk2 Grannies? Had 2 of those things...............

Thats funny cos I`ve met a couple of dogs called Kaiser, and I thought it would be an unusual name. We gave him that name cos the wife wouldn`t let me call him Adolf!

So it looks as tho` I will be looking for a 2011 ish 115 SWB LR

Need to find the going rate then I can haggle with the P-EX

Thanks

We are of to Beauliue auto jumble this week so I`ll start looking next week.

Derrick is a good name, and if memory serves, he devised the pulley system that cranes use today, The Derrick

Int `istory great!

I have a chum who is a yoeman warder at the Tower of London. Now there`s a place for executioners!!! Shame we don`t do it now
