Evening Harald,

I agree, I love this little truck.

Size wise it fits English roads and car parks, though it is long.

And the economy at 22mpg in English gallons, or 8km/l is heavy compared to smaller, boring, city cars etc.

But I never bought it with any concern for fuel consumption, the least of my worries.

It puts a silly grin on my face.

Yes, windscreen will make me swear at myself for months, but you cannot stop on English motorways in that sort of weather.


The carburettor will need to travel the 60km from Pauls home to mine, possibly by mail, or some random delivery opportunity.

So cannot try it yet.
