Come down a snowy steep twisty narrow driveway in a transit and because they are so good at driving away from Tarmac I stuffed it into a wall out of my control. Only cracked the reg plate. Left a bit of a mess of the wall though! Could have been worse, nearly ended up in a busy road so opted for the wall!

:001_rolleyes:After driving up a road that was closed due to snowfall and drifting...:001_rolleyes:

I got the transit stuck....:thumbdown:

After an hour of revving the **** out of it...I got her shifted....only to have the tipper go mad and constantly go up....even when the switch was off...:sneaky2:

So the battery went flat....in 2 foot drifts...:crying::crying::scared1:

After 3 hours.....a snow plough turned up...and gave me a jump start...:thumbup::thumbup:

Shame it was a 24 volt system.....:blink::blink:

So I now have a tranny...stuck miles out on the moors...in a 3 foot snow pile...with a flat battery...and melted battery wires....:cursing::cursing:

That's gonna be fun to get out again...:blushing::puke::puke:
