The RAC call out whoever's local if they can't do it themselves.

I'd get a business set up, start advertising and the business will come in.

Dad has adverts all over the place to drum up business. Has a mitsubishi canter and is building another transit with a spec on the back as with the canter you have to do the tacho bull shit with rest stops and speed limit etc

well Alan I must be lying because I don't have photograpic evidence, I must be lying about the other 100 or so cars I've flogged previous because I didn't take pictures, such a shame really because I really wanted to impress you so much, I feel like I've let you down, if you would like everytime I get a car I can u2u you and ask if you would like a me to take a picture for you
