  1. I’m going to have to do that too in the new year as I’ve still got my company car till then :)
     
  2. You could always email them ? https://www.bridgedale.com/
     
  3. Cheers, but they have distributors and then they sell to specialist shops.... I don't want to sound like an amatuer... they are going to ask awkward and embarrassing questions like...
    Q: How far to you hike a week etc?
    My weekly route includes 135 yards, most days and twice at the weekend.

    Then they are going to send me away when I say they aren't for me, they are for my one legged bro.... can I just have two left socks?

  7. I told my wife IF I ever consider a car called a Porsche she's got permission to put a pillow over my face in the night....

  8. They look a little old for hosing down dirtbikes? Shouldn't they be steam cleaning the underside & engines of HGV's at that age?

  9. I toyed with the idea of buying a Bentley Conti as they can be had for daft money now (sub £20k) but I’ve decided to return to my working class roots and buy a van instead

  10. Had similar thoughts when I bought my 435. For 25k you can get a lot of car!!
     
  11. And a lot of servicing bills!

  12. And 3 times as much fuel ;)
     
  13. That not really an issue with me as my car only ever gets used for collecting the girlf from the tube a couple of times per week and running up to Waitrose if it’s raining and I don’t fancy using the ebike. Hence the reason for selling and getting something I’ll actually use (my butler tells me you can fit a lot of polenta and avocados in a van ;))

  14. You could get an awful lot of brollies for 25k :thinkingface:
     
  15. Or ubers, no congestion or ulez
     
  16. I like vans, we've two... Sprinter and Sportline.
    The car's just don't get driven. Less than 1600 miles across 3 cars... but I like a back up.

  18. Not sure yet. I actually want a motorhome. I have been offered a 1973 VW T2 camper as a swap but it’s too small, so probably something based on a Vivaro or a Sprinter or similar.

    But as usual, there’s a fair bit of mission creep and I’m past the stage of “I need something that I can transport bikes in” and am now considering getting something like this, going off grid and just wandering the earth for the rest of my natural.

  20. I already attract enough attention on this contraption which looks like a prop from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, without riding it while also sporting an umbrella :laughing:
