Seating for one only. Not like they fitted a roofrack for the task.

At 4am? I've stopped going that way to work for that very (bullshit) reason.
It's 20 minutes quicker going A1 M18 anyway. Plus you miss the traffic at Sheffield.
Not when its closed.

Unfortunately not in these Spanish hearses. There is a bit of space behind the front seats but that is the only bit under the deck that can be easily accessed. I will get the tape measure out and see if it will all fit inside.

I need to find some more room in the car now as I have just arranged to buy a set of correct wheels as well whilst I am out there. It will add a couple of hundred extra miles to the trip so I think I shall have to try and get it all in the 4007 which is more fuel efficient and hopefully reliable.

This problem could be easily solved by purchasing a nice van whilst out there...

We are 65 miles from Rennes so depending on how urgent it could possibly come over in august if you’re stuck. Would it fit in a polo hatchback?

Also if you buy something mobile I could hide it in a corner for a bit if needed.

One speed camera each way. North just after J33, south mid way between J34 and J33. You can tell the locals...
