Paul Smith 0 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Some topics just seem to hide away for a while and then come back as if they'd never been away (this one has been hibernating since Jan 2004 and even has a post from the SpinDoctor http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/kid.gif ) Anyway back on topic I use an estate car (Vectra diesel) plus had I replied to this way back in 2004 I would have included a trailer as well but as I didn't I won't because I don't any more http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/wacko.gif Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh Audio Man 21 0 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 My Trusty rusty Transit! http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/tongue.gif Even though.

Dream Catchers 0 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Renault Trafic 1.9 Turbo Diesel and ther gear just fits in http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/scared.gif First time round 20+ years ago I used to get whoever could run me, if I was lucky it was an escort van, but more often than not an old escort estate. God knows how it used to fit. In them days my decks were home built and about 5ft long, the speakers were 2x12s with horns, the records were REAL and they were in cases the size of a large suitcase that held about 700 in each case weighing about 100lbs each and there were 3 of them http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/omg.gif then there were loads of lights too.

Supradave 0 Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Toyota Previa MPV, been using it for over 7 years years transporting the gear about. Marvelously reliable but the interior is now ripped to shreds No room for any passengers just me and the kit. I really must look into getting a smaller rig. Link to post Share on other sites

High Fidelity 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 I used to have a Xantia estate, but it died a slow death in the new year, so I've now got an Astra estate. I wish I had my Xantia back. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/014.gif The adjustable suspension was great for loading and unloading, and the cargo space was bigger and flatter than the Astra.

Andy Westcott 0 Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 My Rover Montego Estate for the amp rack and speakers, and a pillock's Maestro hatchback for the lighting, coffin etc. Not a good situation really, and one that has become unworkable. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/mad.gif Link to post Share on other sites

Jase Windu 0 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 I got it good by the sounds of things, built in residence set up so just take mixer and laptop in back of a taxi that way I can have a few jars 2.

bigMCben 0 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 I use a Ford Mondeo Hatchback. I have my own designed frame/stand which folds flat and has space between the spars to allow the speakers to sit in between them. The coffin for my lights fits between the rear doors just behind the front seats and then the amp, speaker stands, laptop flight case fit in at the back. I can also fit in a bar sized stool/seat and a 16" fan for those venues too stingy to install air-conditioning. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/188.gif Link to post Share on other sites

robbiedj 0 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 Ticked "other" as I use a Kia Sedona MPV (7 seater). Depending on set-up required I just take out more seats. With average show can still have 4 seats if I pack neatly. http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif You want me to play what?
