Times have been a bit tough of recent time money wise not bad but could of been better.
Was driving my old rusted out rover metro in to the ground and did not trust it for long
journeys.
Preventing me from spending as much time on the beach as I would like.
Plus the Explorer2 is looking the worst for wear but still works.
2 pounds in Tesco latter I have a 4000 pound windfall on a scratch card
The ball and chain said that's good we can look at a new sofa ect
and put some in the bank
Well she went to see her mum for a couple of days.
So like all true men did not take a blind bit of notice of what she said
went out and got my self a Bongo munching diesel eating Mitsubishi Delica 2.8td
That will be turned in to a camper for spending my four days a week of work touring the beaches
picking up this summers lost gold.
 
But there was still a weight in my pocket that I,am not used to.
Then had a flash of genius
Why not a spanking new Excalibur and there throwing in a free sand scoop at the moment.
 
Arrived to day oh the joy of new equipment.
 
fresh out the box
 

The scoop on the left is the free one should be good for shooting the coins in the
dry sand and got the monster for the wet and water.
Cant wait to see here face when she comes over tomorrow from her mums.
Could be well handy having the Delica to sleep in when she blows her top Grin

Think a full service is next on my list for peace of mind.
So nice to drive sat in the captain chair with the big old diesel and auto box.
Much more fun than the metro and fill a tad safer lol

nice bit of luck there!!!
and you wont be dissapointed with the delica, i got a 7 seater version same colour as yours and it never stops to amaze me!
got 9 of us in it one day to go off road to get to a fishing lake and ive even dragged a twin axle caravan to llanelli 60mph+ no probs with a 6+half foot double matress in the back and 4 passengers;-)
just try not to break the centre console surround cos its prob the most expensive part to replace  Shocked
oh and if the header tank starts to leak its better to get an alloy header tank for £10 more than a plastic one ;-)
good luck with your new detector and the beast(thats what we call our delica ) lol
