    I have had some interest, but at the moment is still available. I went to check the size, but didn't have a proper tape to measure it with. Using a ruler though (!) it is approx 800mm deep and 600mm wide.

    Thanks

    Hi MrMez

    Is this still available and can you provide any pics? I may be interested just seeing about hiring a suitable sized van/truck

    Also what sort of condition is it in?

    Hi Teddy

    Sorry for the delay. I hopefully have a new owner lined up now, but if anything changes, I'll let you know.

    With regard to your questions, a photo might be difficult as the rack is currently laying on it's side with other stuff piled up around it. However, it is in very good nick and is pretty similar to the new 4210 with a few cosmetic differences - see Dell picture attached.

    Thanks for your interest though.

    Many thanks to MrMez for the cabinet.

    I picked it up yesterday evening, amazing what you can get in a vauxhall meriva.

    I also learned his terrible dark secret but promised I wouldn't reveal it so he doesn't get witch hunted by the Norfolk guys on here.

    You're very welcome! And thank you for your discretion - it would be soooo embarrassing if anybody ever knew!

    I was also impressed by your Meriva - I nearly bought one myself a couple of years ago but then got something a bit cheaper. I think I might get one next time I'm changing cars though.

    I found the keys and some other bits for it, so let me know if you're in the Norwich area in the near future and we can arrange to meet up to hand them over.

    All the best
    James

    With the rear seats down the meriva has quite an impressive load space I should have taken a pic.

    I cable tied the rack to the luggage eyes and then had to tie the boot down to the towing eye at the rear but the boot covered the bottom of the rack.
