Hi Andy,

 

Not bad, ta, and you?  

 

Did spot you and daisy dropping some logs off at stones's a bit back - she's still looking well.  Was it a flatbed you fitted or a tipper?  I've not had a landy of any breed for a while now, slowly working through the rust on a 4x4 Sprinter now. Kinda reminiscent of Daisy in that its big and white and not the quietest in the cab

Sorry bud missed this,

Fitted a tipper on her and had a bodyshop rebuild rear cross member and give it a coat of paint.

Just need something with a little comfort now, and bigger payload.

Apologies for hijacking the thread. Does anyone here have a twin trac (reverse drive) N series? Would there be a reason for it to be stuck in reverse drive only? Or was it ever a factory option to be available only with reverse drive from new? I can't see any benefit to only having reverse drive, so I presume something has broken in the transmission.

Is it a Vario model? We have a T series so not sure but is there a switch when you spin the seat that's not tripping?

Thanks for the reply, it's the Hi-tech and a 121 about 10 years old.
