Just ponder this....

if you ordered a new car and the supplier turned up at your house and dropped all the parts on your drive and started to assemble your new car in the drive what would you do? More than likely ask them to take it away and give you a proper one from the factory. Again if you loaded a traditional home onto a lorry and drove it 250 miles down the motorway how much of the home do you think you would have on arrival. Not a lot we would suggest.
