New Swift Sixteen Well Wagon

Post by swiftsixteen » Wed Jan 18, 2012 5:01 pm

Hi Guys,
Another new wagon to show you. I'm still working on my website, so have to show it here, this way. It is 330mm over buffers, 83mm wide, weight 500 grams and will cost £30.

So What if it is? Least its not a general 'Hey Guys look at my website full of stuff!' They've taken to write something meaningful about a product, which looks good (And good Price to match!).

Rarther have adverts which have the 'Personal Touch' than generic ones anyday

This particular forum (New Models & Reviews) is under the "Commercial" section, and the forum's description is "Announcements on new models, and any reviews should be posted here." Seems to me the original post couldn't be more on-topic if it tried.

So long as such posts stay in this forum, as they have so far, I would positively encourage them. If Rob wanted to participate in the other fora too (with non-commercial posts about his own line and models), that would be equally welcome.

I agree with anythingsdr and hussra. Its in the right place and i've enjoyed reading the questions and answers about the products which have brought out some interesting info. This is probably the nearest you get to a show where you can talk to the manufacturer.

If I read the first post correctly, the wagon isn't for sale yet, so it can't go into the for sale section? And the forum title does say 'new models and reviews'...

What's the internal length of the well, Rob? I'm trying to think of what I could fit on it...
