Well, things have not been great lately... Not only have I not done anything to the van yet, it's also getting rather expensive to run... When I bought it I had 70 miles a week to work and back, and a couple of miles to tesco's, I'd use about £25 in fuel... Now I've had to sell the bike, travel 200 miles a week to work and the nearest supermarket is 20 miles away... You get the picture.

I can't justify spending that much money using the van as an everyday vehicle, and I have no time to do it up as everything I have is dedicated to business projects... I haven't made my mind up yet but it's looking like it going to have to go... What do you reckon it's worth? All the mechanical bits will be in good condition before I sell it, it needs a couple of things doing at the moment...

Just as a reminder it's a 1996 2.5Di LWB SHR, A bar, tow bar, wellers, security locks on the back and full bulkhead, 95000 miles.

I'll be really down when it goes, but that might be for the best...

Well I won't sell it quite yet as it turns out... My girlfriend told me this morning that she thought I shouldn't sell it, and when I gave her my views on why I should, she turned round to explained that I'll need it to move out of her house. Not quite that bluntly but the message is quite clear... Not the best monday I've had so far...

Well, despite my best efforts, this just cannot be avoided anymore...

The van is for sale

Hopefully in time I'll get my finances back on track and I'll get another van to start a project on... I will be keeping the wellers for now as I have only seen one set for sale since I got them, plus my dad just bought be brand new tires for them and I'd feel sh*t having to sell them so quickly...
