Just picking up on a couple of things that have come up in other threads.
There are a number of members who have had money/job worries and want ways to supplement their income abd there seem to be a number of tasks which members want done to their Surfs but are either extortionately expensive or the members dont feel skilled enough to do or don't have enough time to do.
Two things which have come up recently and would appeal to me are:
Waxoyl/undersealing
I would be really interested in getting my Surf undersealed but keep being put off attempting it myself due to the stories of general trickiness, getting covered in it etc. etc.
There are companies that do it for you but you're looking at £600 which is ridiculous for a vehicle that by the time it falls apart through rust can probably be replaced for less than that.
For a couple of hundred or so i would be well up for getting it done.
Heat exchanger
Plenty of members are using veg and havin to mix with higher concentrations of diesel (and therefore more money) in the winter months as well as maybe not helping their engines as much as they would be if they had a means fitted to heat the oil before it hits the injectors. I know there are certainly some that have looked at the various Heat Exchangers's sold on ebay etc but not bought them as they don't feel confident enough to fit them.
for anyone that has the means I reckon there is some work there is its something that would appeal to them and could be a nice way of some members who need it to get some more cash and other members to get stuff done to their Surfs.
Obviously it would need to be someone who is mechanically competant (before the ghost of the lincs landy thread starts haunting this one).
Just a thought.
Out of interest are there any other things that there seems to be a gap in the market for?
