guess the van needs a name change already , that name clearly doesn’t work for a 48 rear OLD man

Kouros, I prefer the aftershave....

 

[Northernraider]

Kouros, I prefer the aftershave....

And thats where the name i chose came from .... kouros aftershave sponsered mercedes in the late 80's ...and was the first aftershave i had in my late teens.
The greek connection was totally coincidental but was a strange coincidence i was here in greece when i decided to buy and build a vario .

But he is only 15 and mercedes are strong motors so a justifiable name i think .

He ? I thought Mercedes was female according to Wikipedia although in todays enlightened times I suppose non gender specific is more appropriate .

 

[nicholsong]

I would walk into a pharmacy and ask for advise.
I can't speak Greek so would take some ' visual aids' with me

When I am in Greece in an area where I think English might not be spoken much, I head straight for the pharmacy, easy to find with its neon light, and usually the pharmacist does speak English.

Well they will be able to make you into an OAP one day if you keep going back.

Kouros? The aftershave lotion?

A bit late to the party

 

[Northernraider]

Met this guy with this big vario rig when i was here in Messini back at the start of December ...i was surprised to see he's still here and hes still painting it lol.

That cost him over €300k 9 years ago between the brand new vario 4x4 pickup and then the body built on the back
He's spray painting it with raptor paint
The trailer he was doing last time i was here

 

[TM59]

€300k is this a typing mistake?
