It's the easiest way to drive!! ;) Make sure it's comfortable to sit in and comfortable to use the foot-pedals. Do you have good visibility in al...

A zombie thread ?

Revived by a spammer at a guess - I've not looked at the link to find out, as moving my money abroad has no interest for me, (no pun intended).
