I had one on trial about 1.5-2 years ago. At the time it was called the akimbo max. I got one to trial as I had go funded the original akimbo design and Jaime had one floating around Europe so it was sent to me. it didn’t operate well in damp Norwegian conditions. I gave my feedback and passed on to the next trial candidate. it will be interesting to see if it is better than the first version.

You could get a job for eggs, selling cars, or caravan holidays.

Horrible isn’t it. Nearly didn’t post it but if we (the royal we) are going to have big opinions on things, we should have to really confront the ugly side of them. We should stare it in the face, raw, and then decide whether we still think the same thing as much as we thought we thought it.

We need to tone down the hatred on this thread. We are Arbtalk. We’re better than that.

That DSG gearbox is the dogs dangle things and at 140bhb, it gets on the way!

Great cars!

Has anyone given one of these a good go? Curious if the mk2 works reliable unlike the first one.

No - another pear

After getting the run about and swerve from a fu#*wit trader, the father in laws car is up for grabs. Low mileage and good history, good interior blah blah blah. Slight scrape on passenger side but otherwise mighty fine! 70k miles with recent cam belt, water pump and AC pump. Suitable as Arb runabout, climbers truck or family motor. Comes with invoices and two keys, viewable in the Retford area. £6,000.

Let me know if u get stuck,

Greetings from sunny Detroit! I’m looking for an opinion on two trees close to our house. One is a sugar maple with a concerning crack in the bark just below the “Y.” The “Y” has a spot that collects water and it feels punky when I stick a knife into the base of it. In past icy winter storms this tree has lost several large limbs. I’m thinking this tree needs to go. The second is a big sycamore that also has a punky spot in the base of one of the larger branches that hangs over the house. It has some dark spots on the bark at the base of the tree that seem to be leakage from the trunk. It has been a beast and has never lost a limb to storm damage but it would also do some serious damage if it did fail. Both trees look healthy with no large dead branches and the leaves look fine. They have shaded our house for decades now but if they are becoming weak I’d rather remove them now before they fail and damage the house. Pictures below. The two trees The maple tree from the south west The opposite side of the maple from the south east The sycamore with 4 dark spots on the trunk The large limb with a punky spot

There are some sick individuals out there celebrating the death of a man, father, son etc. I cannot believe some of the tripe I have seen today. RIP.

@5thelement It looks like a direct shot with something in the realm of a .308/.30-06 with a hollow point bullet. Bearing in mind these are very much capable of stopping a moose, and commonplace in hunting pretty much everything, they are going to, don't know a better way to put it, make a mess of a human.

They should use the Husqvarna K770 oil guard, no need for the expense of Aspen just normal pump fuel and oil guard oil, far cheaper option.

Ill give them a bell. Thanks

I have no idea about a55. Possibly the same?

Its Phaeolus schweinitzii

That video is awful. Poor bloke.

Not seen it so just an assumption, it depends on the angle of the shot and that is believed to be from a rooftop so unlikely as well as whether he had a plate or soft vest? So unlikely in all respects unless it ricocheted in front, but again unlikely.

What about bryco in Northants and see if they vould cross match parts or rebuild the engine ?they do most of the brands

Not that I particularly want to watch the video again, but do any of you with knowledge of firearms think the bullet that hit his neck was a ricochet from his chest plate?

90% my hairy bottom. I doubt very much that 90% of the population is living under canvas.

Benevolent Arab neighbours... sounds good except the borders are closed, have been for a long time. It was a very crowded piece of land before, and moving the population to a small corner makes the population even more concentrated .. there is pretty much nowhere for them to be evacuated to. Though from your earlier comment - I'd agree hiding underneath hospitals and so on - in and among the civilians is not a decent thing to do for an army. As for 99% of Gaza that the IDF are not carrying out operations in... today.... 90% of housing in Gaza is damaged or destroyed. They have carried out operations throughout the Gaza strip. Are you suggesting perhaps that Hamas should be encouraging its population to march from one end to the other and back regularly, perhaps pushing the hospital beds as they go? No, no where for them to go, no escape for the population.
