Whole point is that its free to members so they dont have to spend £5 on tosh from the stalls that populate shows.

yeah i understand that will

free is better but i was just chucking some ideas in

let me loose with some hamerite brush and roller and i can garentee it'll look shit hot

Barclays or somewhere else? You can go to a Barclays branch with cash.

No barclays, except from 30 miles away in Perth and I'll only be going there in a week or so time, if you can wait though I'll just do it that way.

Amazing mate, nice one. Yes indeed, 45.150.
Don't suppose you know the engine size? I told the insurance 4500cc but I think it may be smaller? 3920 according to web searches.

Bit of a random suggestion but why not keep an eye on ebay/freecycle during the winter for a cheap/free touring caravan? Generally have oven, sink, toilet, water heater, all the expensive parts that can be stripped out, cleaned up and then refitted into the wagon? Have seen caravans for under £500 which have pretty much still got all the fittings
