Like the LDV mate

[DN22 Gardening]

she's been a beauty.

 

done all i've asked of her, only problems have been a clutch, and cable.

 

its been sank, overloaded, over trained, neglected. and i don't any other truck in the world would have lasted..

 

if they made one with some guts to it, i'd have had one of those instead of a tranny.

 

seriously thinking of turning back to a straight tipper and keeping her.

after all, when i sell her, she'll only make £6/700 at most.

need her for the next three weeks, got three big jobs( for me anyway)

 

the body is off an 03 crewcab ldv, had cage sides which i swapped for ply.

then had the box made to fit. its very good

i can get 3 saws, 2 hedge cutters, l/reach hedge cutters, 2 strimmers, blower, climbing kits, lowering kit + big box of accessories in it

 

can't decide what to make the new back out of though

These are our two trucks. The mitsi has just done 41000 miles. It has already gone through a set of BFG A/T and is on its second clutch (predecessor to my boss pulling too much weight on site). It has a 2 inch lift kit all round and is the better of the two off road.They are cleaned every 3 months or so. The Ford Ranger is the big bosses. It has a Superwinch 5000 on the front and has full underbody protection. It has a nice 3 litre V6 under the bonnet so it flies along. The ride in the L200 is a bit "boggy" but in the Ranger it bounces about.

I love the look of that one it's a beauty wasn't it 200 quid or something?

I was talking to an old bloke the other day he had a H reg lwb and it was clean as a whistle even under the bonnet he told me he changes the oil every 3000 miles and it's never missed a beat
