    I'd of had to reduce the price significantly to of sold it as is, the side in the pictures is the best side, so made more selling it painted. This one wasn't one of the ones that were mis described by manheim I actually went to a physical auction to buy this. I may be brave and mad but not brave or mad enough to actually buy a Royal Mail van on line I have some standards.

    Good job Manheim didn't take it back then I had a little Kangoo van sat on death row for a few months (it was actually a sound enough van) but it needed a couple of jobs doing on it to make it ok. Loads of lads have enquired about it but I've been too busy with the cars to get round to it. Anyway, one bloke kept mithering about it and after establishing he was a local proper bloke I set to work on it. Two hours after a new battery and lock it passed it's test with only a couple of advisories, only problem was the speedo packed in on the way back from the test. I rang the bloke and he was cock a hoop. I explained about the speedo' 'not arsed, I've got sat nav' he said, and then told him the radio needed coding 'not arsed, I can whistle' and then told him I've got no idea when the cambelt was replaced 'not arsed, my mate will do it for a couple of scoops, can I pick it ip now?'. Just give me a couple of hours to clean it up for youI said, '**** off came the reply, I'll be there in 10 minutes'. I've seen him since and he's happy as larry and everything is now working on the van and it's belt has been done. Happy, stress free days

    AhemPS or P.S. are both acceptable (see below under 'Usage'). p.s., however, is the accepted abbreviation for either particle size or pull switch, neither of which, I am sure you would agree, are particularly relevant in this instance. But I thank you all the same. GG PS: I am now wondering whether pi$$ poor grammar should be the subject of this week's rant? Dictionary DefinitionpostscriptNoun1 a note appended to a letter after the signature [syn: PS]2 textual matter that is added onto a publication; usually at the end [syn: addendum, supplement] Etymologypost- + scriptNounAn addendum to a letter, added after the author’s signature.Usage notesIn a letter, to indicate the beginning of a postscript one often uses the abbreviation PS followed by a colon.Translationsaddendum to a letterCatalan: PostdataDutch: postscriptum, nota beneFinnish: jälkikirjoitusGerman: PostskriptumSpanish: PosdataSlovene: pripisExtensive DefinitionA postscript (from post scriptum, a Latin expression meaning "after writing" and abbreviated P.S.) is a sentence, paragraph, or occasionally many paragraphs added, often hastily and incidentally, after the signature of a letter or (sometimes) the main body of an essay or book. In a book or essay, a more carefully-composed addition (e.g., for a second edition) is called an afterword. An afterword, not usually called a postscript, is written in response to critical remarks on the first edition. The word has, poetically, been used to refer to any sort of addendum to some main work, even if not attached to a main work, as in Søren Kierkegaard's book titled Concluding Unscientific Postscript.UsageThe Oxford English Dictionary lists PS both with and without full stops (PS/P.S.). A "P.S.S.", meaning a "Post-subscript", or "P.P.S.", meaning "Post-postscript" is sometimes used to allow the letter writer to add even more thoughts after the first postscript. To continue, a third postscript would be a P.P.P.S. and so on, although these additions are rarely used in practice and would probably be deemed as poor style.In popular culture"P.S. I Love You" is the title of at least three popular songs, one by Rosemary Clooney, one by The Beatles, and one by The All-American Rejects."P.S. I Love You: An Intimate Portrait of Peter Sellers" is the title of a book by Michael Sellers, the performer's son."P.S. I Love You" (2007) is a recent romance movie.Writing "P.S." was wildly popular in the 1770s and was in several of the letters Paul Revere delivered on his famous rides.

    You're more than welcome. PS I'm sorry for putting this out front early on, but if we are gonna be buddies, it is could/would 'have' not 'of'. My pedantic OCD genes won't stand for it. I'll let the indiscriminate use of apostrophes go for now...
