Looks like I'm taking a trip to the far reaches of time and space tomorrow...

...Marsden near Huddersfield.

Off to look at secondhand Merc Sprinters for my business.

Won't be taking the truck, as wifes car has a DAB radio.

Three hours each way with a Nissan radio?

Err, no!

Always nice to see a different part of our sceptered isle!

More hills than down your way. :)
Nothing wrong with a long drive in the truck, Bolton to High Wycombe and back in a day and all perfectly comfortable and a pleasant place to be. I came back from High Wycombe on Friday in a Focus and was slightly less than impressed, I'd rather have been in the Terrano.

About ten minutes away from me tomorrow morning:thumb2

Watch the main road between Huddersfield and Marsden (A62) as the mobile speed cam van likes to hide out on that road:eek:

Can save about £1,000 - £1,200 by buying from above Birmingham.

just a few miles from me, just make sure you don't stand still for too long or they will assimilate you.
