A section 6 is an inacurate way of describing the self drive system of hireing a limousine. Firstly it is schedule 6. Secondly it is just the way the vehicle has be changed so that it meets the requirements of schedule 6 such as emergency exits and armrests. It has absolutly nothing to do with the hireing of the vehicle at all.

Well I should have been born f in blonde. I spend most of my time being it and I'm still it, that doesn't tell me much but thanks for the explanation. I was curious as to the reference to schedule 6 and the relevance to the fire. Thanks anyway grandad :?

When will you learn Sussex, schedule 6 is a vehicle conversion. Self drive hire is a way of hireing a vehicle.

Isn't the point of hiring a limo to be driven around in luxury. If it's self drive what is the point :?

I will keep on about the scam until the scam goes. July 2009 should be a good time to wind down. :D

I have no problems with you thinking self drive is a scam, that is your opinion and you are entitled to it. The problem is that you keep refering to self drive as section 6 which is total poppycock. As I keep trying to tell you it is schedule 6 and it is a vehicle conversion. Nothing whatsoever to do with self drive.

Maybe it's because they can't run legal, the best bet is to burn the thing and claim the insurance. :shock:
