Very politically incorrect. Looks more like a mobile DIM office.

Where will you fit the HCT and packets?

Why would a van need to have its headlights protected on a council estate? Are you saying people on council estates are likely to attack vehicles for no reason and are all thugs?

Totally inappropriate post IMO.

Quite right Tuffers, I can't see a mounting for a .50 cal either.

I deliver to one, and believe me, they'd find this hilarious, especially the OAP's. The chavvy ones would like this as their transport too I bet.
Plod would be interested in using it as an undercover vehicle, probably, but not with RM markings, as this could blend in with the surroundings somewhat for their "early morning calls" etc

I've know where this is from and it's a good call on using this pic...!

Although I'd probably think about using this one too..

I agree there!

I thought this was serious to start with! Those of us that deliver on walks with a high concentration of council homes will identify with those long days when they all get a letter/bill/statement/card from the council. I drove a new Peugeot van the other day and it was HUGE. It was like one of the other new ones but bigger with 3 seats in the front and about 3 times as big as a cdti. I wondered whether this is the way we are going forward, you can a sh1t load of stuff in there! No headlamp guards though, we don't need them on our council estates the residents do seem to appreciate that the postie is mostly on their side.
