Is this Hobby a good one?????

[ceri and kev]

interested in this van on ebay, i know its a dry van, really not bothered as long as its clean and not stolen!! it looks like a 2003 in my opinion but your input would be much appreciated.

would be willing to part with cash for this van if as it seems. ive had advice from local police, it seems all i can do history checking wise is to ring through an hpi with chassis no. if not cris reg.

any info, advise more than appreciated

many thanks, wannabe hobbyiers!

The colour scheme is 2003 on so age seems correct. Presumably you are aware it's too wide to tow legally with anything under 3500kg and you will need a B+E licence if you passed your test after Jan 1997 and this may be why it has had two previous owners. Perhaps the van has got problems causing it to be sold on quickly?

thanks for your advise, much appreciated.

we do know we cannot tow with car/4x4 but we both have contacts through work with recovery agent and he is willing to transport for us with just the fuel costs, which is great.

the owner has provided me with chassis number so we can do HPI check and we just hope the change in financial climate forces sale. (not that we wish that upon them)

thanks again and any advise welcome

thanks
