Great looking van but you don't want that, I'll swop you my 2001 Laika Ecovip 7r for it and you won't have to give my any money. :whistle:

Thats why he needs the uprated payload, Toys Toys Toys. Who fitted the E&P Jacks for you and did you get the wireless remote.

That is a stunning looking van, as you say a lot of research has been put in, if it's what you finally decide on hope you have many happy years travel and retirement in it.

That is a lovely van, I would love to have one, but what happens if you fail your soon to be much harder HGV medical (See the news in Glasgow today and wait for the kneejerks), you can't drop it to 3500kgs.

It's not hgv at 5400kg - and I have another 20 years before I have to worry about weight!!! Even then - if I can't pass a medical to drive a 5t van then arguably I shouldn't be driving a 3.5t one:xgrin:

I'm a newbie and always will be. You never know it all.
And by the time you get there that may well be the argument put forward.....so make sure you have your cycling proficiency test up to date.:xThumb: I hear through the grapevine that Rickshaw are bringing out a 6ft campercycle.:xgrin:

Sorry, I misunderstood I thought that you were retiring, and another old git like me at 65+++ like a load of others on here. My van at 3860 kg is an HGV and I do need a medical, that I will not get because of my GP attitude.
