You would waste a lot of space with one of them. The rollershutter slides protrude quite a way inwards from the side before you could mount that.

Been out of circulation for a bit as my daughters just had a major op.
The Grafters been really good,I really like driving it,feels just like a tiny lorry, I havenāt towed much with it,our 2 ton Cat is the biggest load and it pulls that alright.
My only gripe is the really uncomfortable seat, itās got a sort of exaggerated lumber support that makes my lower back ache,Even using a booster cushion (much to everyoneās amusement,and yes I do look tall in this big lorry!Tossers!)
So yep Iām pleased with it ,might just have to take a knife to the seat.It feels very purposeful and you know youāre going to work when you get it which I prefer to constantly trying not to ruin a nice pick up, you can pretty much hose this out!

Get a seat out of a old mercedes car and graft that in dead comfortable my my 1965 Volvo has a Jag seat in it and My landy FC will have something comfortable in other words not a land rover one

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
decades ago I had a mini traveller with a flip front and a Cooper lump ... seating was appalling so installed a pair of Renault 17 Gordini seats (which took some finding) in it. Renault have always been known for their excellent ergonomically designed seating and these were probably some of the nicest around at the time .. semi bucket, well padded and fully adjustable, with a very low seat base height .. perfect for where I put them .. superbly comfortable and really held you wellGet a seat out of a old mercedes car and graft that in dead comfortable my my 1965 Volvo has a Jag seat in it and My landy FC will have something comfortable in other words not a land rover one

Thanks for the advice,I will see how it goes as I havenāt been in it for a couple of weeks due to daughters op.To be fair I did also tweak my back a bit working out a few weeks ago (brain Refuses to join body in being fifty!),hoping that made the seat seem worse,if not I will be changing it somehow.

Iāve got an uncle in Australia who I lived and worked with a million years ago. Literally worked himself into the floor but but has done very well for himself from nothing.Now in his mid seventies ,physically f####d ,stillworking every day on his farm and has aD11 on his quarry .Lost the use of one arm and told me he āsort of just rests it on the wheelā when driving his Kenworth! Legend of a bloke,basically unstoppable, somehow chopped his thumb off on Tractor hitch a couple of years ago ,shrugged that off as an inconvenience.
