Posted By: mrhanky hourly ramp/workshop rental - 11th Jan 2012 5:50pm
something i've been toying with doing for a while now but would need to get an extra ramp in.

anyone reckon there would be many takers for an hourly ramp rental?
don't have to earn a fortune from it, just something to keep my overheads down.

Biggest bugbear is insurance, a flattened customer could be expensive.

used to be a few around a while back but i think health and safety /insurance was enough for them to close down

I saw that as well, I got the card. "U-DO", Alf Derbyshire, 07749475075.

10 quid is OK for small jobs, might be worth taking to a garage for a whole day though. smile There are some jobs you can't do lying on your back on the driveway.
