New Home Service caddy

Yes, it's finally here! Our Home Service van has now been replaced with a white Volkswagen caddy.

Our Home Service volunteers that have been out on a round with the caddy are all in agreement - the new vehicle is much easier to get in and out of and most importantly so much better to drive. Also, no more reaching up to close the back door. It has barn doors which swing open easily plus the sliding doors at either side make it accessible to reach into the vehicle.

It doesn't have any markings on it yet as Ruth is working on the design and layout. So looking forward to when it does come out decked with the new design. 

For those of us that were wary of driving the old van, this one drives like a sedan, not like a semi. I encourage you to try it out. So come on over and Marianne or yours truly can give you the keys to give it a spin. I'm sure you'll feel right at home :)  


Some pointers 
  • The key for the ignition is released by pressing the silver button at the top
  • You need to have your foot on the brake and the gear on Park or Neutral to start the engine
  • Indicators are on the left-hand-side of the wheel while windscreen wipers are on the right
