    Vans and the snow! Any van drivers like to share their thoughts?

    I've got a citroen dispatch and it was really good in the snow last year. Its FWD & seems to have much wider tyres than most of the vans on the road. Rock solid as long as you dont do anything stupid.

    repossesed homes

    Hi Dave Slightly off your topic but I do a bit of work for solicitors who specialise in probate work who need properties drained down / made safe. It might be worth rining round your area to see who has a big probate dept.
