I can't believe people go to customers houses working from a car or estate?

It all sounds abit rogue trader to me... No offence, you might be the best plumber in the world, but it just don't look right!

what if the car is a roller:)
 
I know a plumber charges top dollar always got work works out of astra estate. also a decorator who charges 250 a day works 6 days a week has a zafira not saying these are the best tradesmen or anything but it certainly doesnt affect them getting work in any way.
 
I bought a Nissan Navara to work out off double cab with a snug top, kind of a middle ground solution, good enough to put the wife, baby and dogs in and go up to scotland in, and big enough for work, not perfect but a good compromise

I broke the rear window and guess how much for a replacement £720 +vat !!!!!!
 
Hard work trying to do that from a car and all your gear is going to be on show, not impossible, but why dont you try selling the car to finance a cheap van, thats the way I started and build your way up as you go, same with tools, you dont need a VW Sportline to start up.

Daylight robbery! Hope the insurance covers it! Then it's just a small excess!
