RAC Vans Update.....

Postby captain hook » Sun Apr 13, 2008 7:00 pm

End of lease RAC Vans from Lex are now being offered back to the RAC at half the normal lease cost.
The RAC are taking up this option on every van offered.

The ONLY vans to be released from Lex will be the sub-standard vans or, vans with considerable body or mechanical faults.

There will now be VERY FEW Ex-RAC vans coming onto the market!!!

How do I know?

My neighbour is an RAC patrol......His '52 plate van now has to last another year.

This may also go on another year after that, depending on condition!

He is well pi55ed off as it seems, by looking after his van, he now has to keep it

up to 10 years, where somebody who abuses a van, will be rewarded with a new van...
