First of the 24 plates out there somewhere…
I’m yet to see it. Driver took it straight on a film shoot, then Everything Everything, ESB, Freak Slug and The Orielles all having a turn before it makes its way home. Will their farts ruin that new car smell? Only time will tell. Tragic really.

Hi, James here. Had the pleasure of seeing Ultimate Thunder live and they are a really great band. The members have learning difficulties/ complex needs and sadly the charity that supports them has lost funding so they need to raise £. Help if you can:

Two brand new long wheel base Renault Master splitter vans for hire which include air conditioning, cruise control, CarPlay, parking sensors, 9 comfortable seats, plug sockets and usb charging, a Sony sound bar and sub, LED lighting and a large secure load bay.

These Renaults are 300kg lighter than most other long wheel base splitters which means they can offer both a 1.6 metre load bay and 1000kg of useable payload and do it at a lower price point.

These splitter vans are safe, cost effective and able to accommodate the weight of 9 people and backline in one vehicle.
