    Rob Elliot - Boxed Drinks Coffee Trucks - Episode 72

    If you've been to practically any major car event in the last few years you may have seen Rob, and possibly even had coffee from him. Rob and I have become good friends over the last few years, thanks to his outgoing and vibrant personality, and his ability to make a stellar cup of coffee. The boxed drinks coffee trucks have grown from a simple horse box trailer into a fleet of classic and vintage coffee trucks, a 2CV van, and a Land Rover Defender 90 Pickup. Instantly recognisable, and built from a passion for not only interesting vehicles, but fantastic style and humour around the liveries they wear. Get bonus Takona content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
