Collection mission - Grand Cherokee collected


Recommended Posts

Posted

With my fleet imploding lately it's time to buy something sensible*

Collection is today

Poo count 1

Coffee - not pictured but strong. May have contributed to the above

Breakfast currently being consumed

Guesses on are welcome( on the vehicle, not breakfast)

It's safe to say after recent experiences it's NOT fucking German. It was however made in a country that shares a border with it. 

  • dome changed the title to Collection mission - insert witty pun here

My guess is either a Zenvo made in Denmark, or a horse and cart from Luxembourg. 

I demand a large and valuable prize for my correct guess.

I sort of forgot about the Czech republic. 

£5 on a Skoda Octavia, preferably a mk1 1.8t vRS.

Collection transport ready.

No pics of me in my lycra you'll be glad to hear. ETA 60-90 minutes depending on how quick my lardy ass can go

I wish to revise my guess from earlier, to a Swiss-made Sbarro Windhawk 6X6

I just googled that. It was designed for the King of Saudi for him to do falconry in. The seats rise up 80cm so you can launch birds out of the sunroof without having to stand up. It also has a meat fridge.

I am going to be disappointed if @dome's new ride doesn't have a meat fridge.

It's a Skoda saloon/hatch thing with a huge towbar.

Good job the roof comes down on the 206 then - save you pulling the wheels off to get the bike in the boot?
Congrats

[edit] I'd been hoping for something Dutch - DAF/Ovlov 66 bandy driven thing?

@loserone's suggesting that's a BIG SKODA - I'm kind of hoping it's actually a red herring and the Pug is the intended purchase? 

However applying science:
Taking the average radius of a 700C cycle wheel (red), factoring in the extra height of the towbar from the ground (green), and the diameter of the dead tyre in the background (blue).
It's either an Austrian built UniMog with aftermarket air suspension that's got a leak or - the BIG SKODA.

That's only two wheels and one meat fridge short of a Sbarro. 

Nice. :)
