Sweet daily! There's a bile yellow (sorry don't know the actual colour - but the new M3's are available in it) yank day van of some sort on chrome billets living across the road from me.

Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

tigran - do you mean that shade of metallic urine? *n That's the jobbie. Swear it's either an astro van or a gmc day van. Either way it looks hawt and judging by the lack of useage it probably has an immeasurably large v8 in it. Will get some pics at some point to share. |

Mines got the 4.3 262 V6 vortec engine in it
Suprisingly economical for a big engine.
The vehicle is ideal to live with on a daily basis and is great for the family

Astros are very cool. I'd be on the lookout for a less sticky-outy bumper too, but it's pretty stunning even with it. Great buy!

Your not being nosey or thick pal
they come i all sorts of variations i.e 7 seater , 8 seater , rar pull out bed ect ect. Many are loaded up with media.
Mine is has got 4 captain chairs and a 3 seater bench in the rear, that flips down to make a table. Loads of space and storage and an incredible practicle motor, great for days out hence its nickname ' day vans '

I'd go back to a standard bumper but with a frenched in 'plate and maybe a pair of small (clear lens) spotlights either side. Or I'd just take the family out for a cruise and do it later. Maybe.
