My arb-vehicle.

[Daniël Bos]

I've got a new vehicle!

I was after all the usual, plus a bit more!

I needed:

-space to carry my saws, axes ropes and kettle.

 

-space to carry two kids to school, and sometimes they want to bring home a friend or two.

 

-Easy to drive for the missus as well. So no Mog.

-must carry a load of logs when needed.

 

-must be able to turn around in small spaces. So no landrover.

 

-must be as fuel efficient as possible.

 

-must not get stuck or must have the ability to get out of any trouble it gets in. So no transit or Ldv van.

 

-must be ultimately reliable. So nothing older than 5 years old.

 

-Must not make me look like a w@nker so nothing that has "thunder", "invincible" "warrior" or any other street-hero rubbish written on it.

 

-must convey the right image to the customer "we care about the work, not just your money"

 

 

And I got it all!

Plus I pay no road tax, peanuts to insure, I have an super-extended range thanks to the extra large fuel tank.

It runs on most fuels, available anywhere.

Parts are cheap and readily available.

I love it!

I'll get it sign written before long.

Its a barrocycle are you going to fit a tipping chip box ? What can it tow ?

[Daniël Bos]

It can tip just fine as it is, that was a no cost optional extra!

 

I've towed a trailer of over ten times the vehicle weight without issues, but there's no legal limit, so the possibilities are endless really.

[Rich2484]

Just one thing I've noticed....

 

It can't handle very well around the corners.

First class!. Did you order the optional trailer or sidecar for additional cargo or passengers?

I love the expressions on the face of the right hand sled dog (on the left in the picture) and on the face of the kiddy in the foreground!
