never a cow once had a deer run along the embankment for some distance aswell, slowed down to watch it also didnt want it running out infront of me, like my mate who had the pleasure of meeting one at 50mph in a renualt 19!!!! yea no twats on road, and no bosses in the warehouses

Fraid so, 12 hours a night, and i wish I got £13.78 for the bastards

I did nights for Tesco for a bit, money was nice, but the managers were all C.....s. I had to stop doing it because I knew I was about to knock one of em out.

DO NOT DO IT!!!!

At least pop over there for a test drive, and be PUT OFF FOR LIFE. It is only J24 Kegworth.

I tried a 1700 diesel, and that put me right off.

1600 turbo diesel - I had one for 2 years for my works van and it was great.

1600 n/a diesel will not pull the skin off a rice pudding and is unsafe. You will slow down to 50/60 going up mild motorway inclines and get overtaken by HGVs..........
