So I sent the guy some pictures of George the Valiant Goon, he rings me straight back, paying for fuel, accommodation, food and $300 per day (2 days including drive time), it appears George will have a caravan on the back and be used in the movie, sure hope he makes the final cut.

I hope you've read all the horror stories of how cars are treated in movie making and how there's no compensation or repair. I'm sure others can add to this.
