My girlfriend runs her own dog walking company and is so busy she needed a van.

Being a dubbed there was only ever one choice.

Here it is before we picked it up:




Its a 08 maxi 2.0lt six speed, its got a remap to 180bhp, side bars etc.



We have kitted the back out with rubber floor, carpeted sides and dog cages. It's absolutly perfect for the job, she can probably carry 10 dogs no problem all in compete safety.

I'm not going to be able to play with it as much as I would like as it needs to be used daily and stay reliable.

This weekend I have managed to sort the headlights out:






Any ideas to improve it would be great.

Look nice mate
What's wrong with the headlights?

Saw that on evilbay, hope ya got a good deal.

looks very nice, not sure about the side bars with the rubber step bits, i do like the plane bars without them though....
and always nice to see a maxi..

Nothing mate, I painted the insides black this weekend. The front was a bit too silver for me before.

Looks tidy, mate. Should imagine it gets a shift on too! Any plans for rims?

Is your girlfriend (ie you ) going to put one of those ventilation fans in the back? My brother has his own dog walking business (with a T4 just to keep you dubsters happy) & he swears by them but his doesn't have AC.

Nice wagon!

I watched that on ebay for ages but the bloke was a plonker and didn't fancy driving 1/2 way across the country to deal with him properly!

Thanks mate, it does go well.

I would like to put some rims on but she's not so keen as she's worried she'll damage them, so maybe one day.

What fans are they mate? We've been out in it today and its been too hot for the dogs in the back and have been thinking about doing something.

Haha he was a bit like that. Fortunately we live a bit closer to him.

Small van update,

Bought this on eBay



Used it today and its been great but now I feel the speakers are letting it down.

What does everyone else run? Wasn't thinking of going too mad, components in the front and maybe a 8" sub under the seat?
