You really cannot be a serious man of the woods in the UK with one of these footballers statements.!

 

 

You need something British and correct for the job with crane, tipper and six wheel drive and two ton load capacity

A little while back I had a 130 tipper and frankly it nearly sent me over the edge.

Bloody thing leaked everywhere, turning circle of a supertanker, lost a fortune on it as I couldn’t register it over here. Swore off the LRs for ever.

But time is a great healer, and my brother in law is selling this 110, I looked around it (and underneath!) and it seems as sound as they can be.

The 110 pick up is the only configuration that would tempt me, so I snapped it up.

I’m keeping the Ranger, as I don’t want to depend on a LR for work, it’ll be a good tow tug, I’ll sign write it, and my nephew will use it to get to the yard.

Its also the right colour, sort of matching the MO and the Ranger, which seemed like a sign.

 It’s in the spray shop atm, getting the dents sorted, plus I’ll get the roof and wheels done in black, new set of General Grabbers all round.

Look forward to hearing how she goes. I love my mk7 Had it a fair while now ( 63 plate ) but still only. Done 62k. I like the look of the new one but just not worth changing mine. Would mean getting mods done again. Might buy another but can’t see me ever selling the current one.
Had a couple of hilux. If I could find a mint old surf I’d buy another just as a run around. great car.

Mick, tidy truck, TD5 and RHD is that not  a pain over with you, mind you won't be doing much overtaking.
