FFS keep "Little Tony" in your your pants, then you wont have to drive such contraptions, at least have the decencey to buy a Range Rover.
Im saving up for an Oyster card and some odour Eaters.
Tony, it's... er.... YELLOW!
This will bring the ghetto blaster to areas that up to now have been underserved.
They do say yellow cars have the least accidents...
Beast - your advice is good but 10 years too late.
Flet - the Tuscan *nearly* ordered his Beemer 3 series coupe (ahhh...)in lime green with yellow leather interior. His excuse was he was 25; luckily wiser, female, heads prevailed and the idea was confined to the dustbin of history.
Anon - we're very underserved with ghetto music on the Estate; when here Paolo does his best to upset his master by parking the silver hornet (=Fiesta 1.1L) outside the Tuscan's study window and fiddling with the knob of his 5 watt tranny. When he invests in something JVC and 200 watts, is when I take the gun off the wall and start shooting.
Lilith - that's probably because there's only 7 on the roads of Britain right now, and not only that, but they're highly visible.
Merc is not what it was. I hired one for my tribe last Xmas when I flew them out to the Chalet in Chamonix (pretentious?) for skiing.
Plastic. No room in the boot. A german variety club sunshine coach in fact. Put together by Pedro in Spain. After a lunch of boiled donkey cock, cat food and Rioja.
OH prefers the Volkswagon Caravelle, LWB, leather, 2.5 Tdi, aircon blah blah blah
...is that the one with the pop-up roof and the 2 rin gas stove, OH? A friend has Caravelles ("only £ 45,000 TT, a lovely 3.2 V6, you should get one") so I can't have one clearly. Teh Ambiente is nice, probably not what you'd get for a hire wagon. I urge you to Google Brabus Viano to see the way forward when the sprogs are gone
That's an ugly bus, and no mistake. Turn up in that on our shoot and it would take some collateral pellet damage, I can promise.

not as rude as CLINT LANE (in a village near Lincoln) after the lads with the black marker pens alter it.
At first I thought you were getting another Beamer 3 Tuscs!
There were tears of mirth from a chum when saw one of the sweet little soft tops with a sticker on the back which said: -
"There are no hairdressing materials left in this vehicle overnight..."!
The Beamer 3 runs on hair gel, doesn't it Scrobs..though if someone offered me one I wouldn't say no...
I have long since ceased fantasising about cars. It got really bad for a few years when I had to schlepp up and down the motorway in a Fiat Uno Diesel..the journey was spent dribbling over other people's motors. The Mercedes Sprinter was always most coveted.
Idle - like Wodehouse's Magic Plus Fours, it will grow on you, should the Tuscan decide to invest in it.
Scrobs - Excellent! Don't worry, it didn't ever happen.
Lils "Mercedes Sprinter"? Youse is a lady of unusual taste in motors, that's for sure. Handy for luggage, though, I suppose.
I've had a look at the Titty Ho Motor Company's website and, having expected to see that they were based in HK, was surprised to see that they are in Northamptonshire.
I note that the About Us section of their website is "Under Contsruction" (sic)
Would you really want to drive a car that had this name on the licence plates?
P.S. type "Titty Ho" into Google and look at the interesting adverts that appear on the right hand side of the page....
Lakes - I am tempted to buy the thing SOLELY on the basis of the little rear window sticker. the Tuscana is less keen, for some reason.
Gotta love a Merc

Round where I live the locals classify what folks drive thus: a Honda is for the new money; a BMW is for the drug money; and a Merc is for old money. Truth or (inverted?) snobbery I cannot tell. I shall now studiously refrain from informing you who made my wheelset.
RHD Tuscan? This monstrosity is only a tarted up bread van, and as OH correctly points out the VW IS a much better bet, and you would of course have the diesel one. Merc dealers are not enamoured of this one.
My good chum in Belgium, who is my host for the sanglier in a few weeks had a Rover/LandRover dealership, and a host of offspring. He gives his missus the VW, and a very fine tool it is - at least for the first week of ownership, after which it resembles a skip outside a fast-food joint. When he sold said dealership, he sighed and said, "at last, now I can get a Toyota!" and binned the LandRover.
Have you looked at the diesel L/Cruiser 7-seater? 45's one has just finished its 3 year warranty with not ONE thing to report.
End of motor-trader's advice, except for - ignore the Beast!
Oh - France? Superb link.
Ncmad, OK, let me guess, you drive a Citroen.
45 - yep, we don't care about the wheel on the wrong side here. As for OH, he rented a low-rent van, this is derived from that ve-hicle but is not that vehicle. A lot of cattle died to accomodate my ample posterior on the seating, for one. For another the VW only has I think one sliding door, the Merc has (optional extra) two. As for thje state of the thing, the current one looks like the dumpster behind MacDonalds, the new one will be the same within a week. Such is life with 3 under 10s, and with a fair wind hopefully soon to be added to.
Tony,
I've managed to find a site that does the VW Multivan and it has the mildy humourous name of
takemeuptheshitterdarling.com

I suppose you could have some Super Woofers fitted to recover a bit of street cred.
OH, had a look last night, thanks. the Caravell, albeit a nice lookiin' mota', has too much baggage for it to be considered.
E-K - I would rather be trapped on a small sandy islet with Peter and Gordon than be seen in a Citroen
OH too has an MPV for his 6 complete bastards to destroy
Here
Fawkes drove a Citroen (yellow) people carrier, until the fucker got caught pissed at the wheel(again).
Probably a shite idea to drive about arseholed with a car full of other piss artists, weaving all over the place past the MI6 building.
Just in case you cared (no, I didn't think so!) the street in Raunds where the dealer is based, is called "Titty Ho". Not Titty Ho Street or Lane or Drive or Road, but just "Titty Ho".
Always have some interesting cars there.
