    Ross, did your orange van get wrote off by a delivery van? You had a very lengthy build thread on the other site (booooo).?

    Sorry if this rakes up hard memories.

        .I felt gutted for the guy though, as you say he had put some awesome work into that van (I Think it had a 20V turbo conversion also)...
        Only to be smashed up....

              Ok. Sorry. Got confused, so many builds.
              I felt for that guy too.......after what he spent and what he got back from the insurance.......the police would have had to pull me off his corpse at the side of the road. Poor bugger

                  I Know what you mean mate, too many horror stories at the moment regarding insurance not paying out for what our vans are worth......

                  Scary when you think how much Wonga we stuff into them...

                      I've got agreed value on my van, hope I never have to find out if it's worth the paper it's written on...

                            I work for an electrical contractor, which means I can abuse the fact that our wholesalers will send out packages for me.....
