Maybe a thought

Post by BASARABOY »

Just a thought. Might sound like a very silly one but still here we go. My main BOV is a landrover which I am kitting out as I want when time and money allow. Now here comes the thought, Not so long back we bought the daughter a car but as teenages do she was silly enough to loose her liecence :evil: so now it is sitting in the garage doing nothing. :x
It's a Toyota RAV4 has anyone tried to up spec one of these to use as a BOV. I admit not the largest of vehicles but maybe it could have some form of altered ego given the right encouragment. Any info ,ideas or suggestions most welcome.
Or should I just go and put my head in a bucket of cold water for five minutes. :lol:

It's sounds good. I have seen one completely up spec'd before. But I doubt you could really call it a rav4 because it wasn't really.

I shall go down the road and covertly take some photographs of It.
Not really road legal but you could call it a BOV.

it would cost more to spec up a rav 4 than buying a old land rover every penny would be money down the drain. sell it and crack the savings and buy a real bov!!

I agree, Sell this one if surplus to requirements and concentrate on your Landy. Perhaps put half the money in a savings account to go toward a small car if your daughter gets back on the road.
