THATS WHY YOU HAVE NO NEW VANS, YOU DONT LOOK AFTER THEM. AM SURE IF YOU HAD TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGE AND ABUSE YOU GIVE THE VANS YOU WOULD THINK TWICE ABOUT HOW YOU USE THEM................... WELL DONE
I've heard that they are all stored on an airfield as far as the eye can see. No homes found for them as the revisions are not coming in yet.
Strange thing is Royal Mail has no money yet ALL these vans have been road taxed, dead money for something you cannot use yet!!!
I guess the share money has paid for this.
As for yards too small to cater for all the new vans when you get them - you will be taking them home with you

If thats meant to be a joke then well done, its pretty funny.
For your information in 10 years that is the first 'prang' I've had in a RM van and I found it quite ironic that whilst I'm forced to drive round in vans that are barely road legal I manage to damage a brand new one that appears to be for a managers own personal transport.
As for "ABUSING" the vans.... I'm sure driving up and down farm tracks with 10" deep pot holes does more damage to them than anything I could ever achieve.
