then one day shortly after his 18th birthday, he told me his girlfriend was pregnant... that van changed his life forever

further to life changing moments due to PV's my best mate didn't have a Ford or Holden PV BUT a Mini PV with chromies mattress and music.
Size never matters when doing the business, got his girly preggo and game changer.
Married her @ 18yrs had to move out of Sydney even back then he wasn't in a position to buy (go figure no diff to today) bought up the central coast.
2 daughters later BUT he missed out living the life with the boys through our 20's.
