Glad you've found somewhere. So when is this new mode of Harris transport hitting the rally circuit? It looks like it only needs the usual - bit of T-Cut and a wash! :lol:

You'll have to entice the resident cat out before you move it. Sweet little thing - it climbs in through the rather big hole in the engine bay and sits on the passenger seat :lol:

I think they will be very happy to let her go with you - however I'm not sure her owner would be quite so accommodating :D Must ask Charlie to take a photo!

Lol.

If you get another one don't worry about it. The whole thing is getting stripped anyway......

I've had a cat living in the Raymobile for a couple of years! It gets in through the floors, or wheelarch.. or anywhere really!

"oooh - cute puppy"

He was nameless at the time. You'll have to check with owner for the final name choice! We were flying emails at each other for a few days with suggestions - I wanted him to call him Blue, and Luke wanted to call it Octimus Prime ! :o :roll:

Brand new. used once.

I towed my traveller 5 miles to the new storage place SORNed no MOT but insured. Nawty I know but when needs must and you do it safely and responsibly I cant see a problem looking at some of the clowns out there!

Im looking at buying a twin axle car transporter so Dan...if you find one for £5-600 let me know - a decent one that is - if its in your area i'd have no problems with you picking it up, using it and dropping it off to me in Bristol or me collecting it in August.

Lemmie know!
Interested??.......thought it was a good offer. :-?
