I'm reluctant to mention this but isn't that the date the eco terrorists plan on buzzing Heathrow with drones? Might be worth checking on.

The A10 is now sold,
The guy that bought it i have seen his modelling, a butcher springs to mind, still its gone, money's in my pocket
So a question, when i get back to uk ill have over 4k in euros
Now do i change it to pounds before brexit or wait, going to get a lot more pounds after but they will not be worth so much,
In my opinion
What do you learned gentlemen think,

Financially, I'm not 'learned', I run on pot-luck.
My guess is, either things will go to hell in the proverbial basket, and the Euro will be worth about the same as a Hong Kong cent, or the pound will mean something again, to the rest of the world.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

I've got one, dead reliable, the only faults are - the pedals are quite close together, so if you happen to be wearing boots, you can press two at once - and the back is only 5'6" long, not quite long enough to lie down in!
The sliding side door is useful, too.
Don't forget, in the UK it is classified as a commercial vehicle, so your tax and insurance will be around £260 each.
If you can find one, you might be better with the 'people-carrier' version with the side windows, then take the back seats out! Don't know what the tax and ins are like on those, though, I've not bothered looking.

Been looking at the people carrier version, a lot of them about
The road tax is about £100 cheaper, dont know about insurance, i bet that is going to hit me hard, my age, no no claim bonus, they dont do it here for me they just keep my yearly payment the same, no price rise, no claims in the last 8 years
