But he added he would have to seriously think about the future of the business as the limo is one of only a handful of full-length fire engine limo conversions in the UK and it will be costly and difficulty to replace it

I'm sure the Insurance money will be spent well.

Perhaps another unlicensed vehicle type? A tank perhaps?

It's a section of the PSV act that certain naughty boys are trying to use to get around all this licensing lark. [-X

But it's a scam that even the Limo Association think is a scam.

Maybe that's why the 'burn and claim' scam is now used a tad more. :shock:
