STOP PRESS HAGGERS TO BECOME SHIFTZ AND OLD MO (1 Viewer)

[haganap]

Well after what can only be described as a week of sleepless nights, decisions decisions and decisions i have finally handed over a wedge of the spondoolies as a deposit on the new wheels.

Nikki and I with the help from poor ear bitten mr and mrs @drago35uk have ended up joining my hero's @ShiftZZ and @old-mo and becoming those far better than Burstner owners and joining the elite band of Rapido owners..

We have opted for a Rapido 999m on a 2009 3-0l Auto Merc.... A lovely if not very dirty bit of kit and can't wait to collect.

So coming to a rallyfield near you soon------- Haggers and the Rapido with it's german routes carefully given the name of "rommel" or Panzer ...

 

[Brisey]

Congratulations on your purchase Paul. We wish you and Niki many safe and happy journeys in your new van.
Brisey & Pamelaaar.

 

[Puddleduck]

Looking forward to a guided tour

German? Crapidos are French young Haggers.

It's the superior Burstners which are German

My Rapido has German roots . Spawned in Dusseldorf

 

[Armytwowheels]

Erm, excuse me. Never mind the engine, what is the seating/party arrangements??? Nobody gave you permission to sell the best party bus on the circuit, I am devistated.

Hi Paul congrats on your new M/H BUT GRAHAM IS RIGHT the running gear(merc) is German but the vans are made in France

It's not really a handicap apart from more expensive servicing.

Err guys, I'm not stupid

It's. A Mercedes, it's an iron horse, it's German........it's a Rapido the prime of French engineering powered by the prime of German engineering,,,,

I think after 10 years of owning vans I can tell the difference,

Didn't want a Full German, that would be just wrong....

Party bus is over finished done ended and no more.
