I was browsing the trucks on E Bay earlier(As you do, as a treat after doing Trader ads)and found yours.Do someone well that.Loads of watchers?
I was going to put my old Iveco spec on there but it sold on Sunday to a local fellow-vulture :P .Sad to see the old girl go even though it's an animal to drive.
Go on please show the after valet pics... :wink:
