Pimp my ride - 365 drills smart delivery fleet deliver diamond drills for hard tiles - Tile Drilling

Arrrrgggggg Get your sunglasses out. We have just bid on ebay (and won) the latest addition to our fleet of delivery cars. [err one car!]

I'm planning to run a little delivery service whith a vehicle to go anywhere within the M25 for emergency orders. (Yes people pay £50 delivery same day for emergency deliveries)

So I am going to do a "Pimp My Ride" and looking for a graphics company to bling up this car.

This is the beast... £35 a year to tax. £10 a month to insure. 60mpg.

Thinking of using the slogan "Another smart delivery of diamond drills"

And I am trying to work our what sort of graphics would look good and where to put them on this banana coloured car....

Can you imagine looking in your mirror to see the banana car coming up behind you....

It certainly has the right colour scheme for our branding.

Now all I need to do is persude Nicky & Vicky to drive it about and I am sure we will get a bit of publicity.... Who needs dragons den.

If you know of any decent signwriters who do vehicle graphics give me a shout !

Another crazy marketing idea from 365 Drills....

Never gets dull!

Evening Richard,good slogan btw.im sure the girls will look good delivering the drills with that uniform on .Ido know a sign writer but its a bit far to come up here just for sign writing ,good luck with the advertising of your drills.Can you pm me a price plus delivery for them to Glasgow and you might have another customer ?cheers m8....Bri

Send Nicky & Vicky to the emerald isle anytime!!! They would be made most welcome!

Nice idea with the car Richard!

Just seen a great little number plate for sale as well....

TIL 3331

And as you are all tilers you should have a look at the NewReg site for a few more plates for your vans !!

Have a look at any TIL plate ending with a 3. NewReg Search

Although at £15,000 the plate 1 TLE is a bit out of my reach.....

The car finally got its makeover and now gets hauled about the UK to events as well as a local runner about London

Worth every penny! So many people see it and remember

**faithhealer** · 17-05-2009

I remember it from one of your previous photos Richard so the idea works. Is there room in that car for me, and the girls?

Not really eye catching

Should have had it wrapped for maximum impact

**doug boardley** · 17-05-2009

would you fit "another smart delivery of diamond drills" on it Richard?

Now that is inspired!

Or "No pilots on board, just the driver!"

I love that!

"No Pilots Here, Just a 365drills Driver" (playing on 'drill-driver'?)

IF there wasnt a credit crunch then......

£269+VAT, Plus £80DOT fee.

With the recession in place.... Nahhhhhhh not worth it.

cornish_crofter · 20-05-2009

Come on Richard!

Credit Crunch or no credit crunch, it's got to be worth it at that price!

How many extra sets would you have to shift to make £400?

I say you'd do it with that plate, one extra talking point.

Normally I would agree but as of 23rd September 2009 I have something else that needs cash - and lots of it.

Thats either Fay or Zak and having reached the age of 40 even I cant escape the path of father-hood.

Mrs H did an about turn at Xmas and told me she was fed up of the DINKY lifestyle and fancied being a mum. O-well !
