  1. An all red one and the finished purple unit!
  2. At under 200kg, stripped down to Vee Twin engine and two chutes, plus cassette and a guard there is nowt to it! Rob Rainford ain't no power lifter either!!!
  3. I seem to remember that Rob Rainford dismantled his CS100 and carried that through a house and up some stairs to a roof top garden some years ago.
  4. I cannot think of one on a hire fleet to be honest. Neil Holding in Cornwall has one and he could chip for you? I'll see if I can find a number for him later and pm you.
  5. Hell of a lot darker than my karsi! Your bathroom suite must absolutely gopping if that is the colour of yours!
  6. This one has been called "Cadbury".
  7. Sorry. It is a tad more than machinery though at times....but you are right in a way, Stevie Blair brought a CS100 and Andy brought a Jesus Beau and the rest joined in!

  9. Would the Italians stand behind you if their spec wasn't correct? Would they assist if you had supplied a couple of dozen duff units unwittingly?
  10. Tbh, apart from a couple of things, the performance is the same, it should be, it is a copy! However, we read that the indeed chute should be longer and therefore safer. What would you do if the Peruzzo was found wanting?
  11. Why is a CS100 better, brought from and supported by local dealers with the knowledge and back up from several people at GreenMech? People who will come out and have a look and help get it sorted? Dealers who are local to you if you need anything in the future, not only for the CS100, but also suppliers of a variety of other Arb and Groundcare tools and machinery? How about the few people have had an issue on a four year old unit and we stuck out hand in our pocket to help them out? How about those owners who brought a CS100, developed with help from the British economy, supported by the people who support the British economy, by a company who employee some 120 people in England - all supporting the British Economy? Developed by a company who asked a previous trading partner to support their efforts in their own country but that outfit decided to gut and flush that agreement in such a careless, unprofessional and sneaky manner? Now, will that do for a bit? Buy British, buy from a full on British manufacturer, buy with the confidence of the product having the back and support of someone who has the resources going forwards.
  12. We did, and it cost an awful lot of time effort and money to prove that we were the true developer of the SafeTrac and Jensen were not. If you did a cost/benefit analysis, chasing Peruzzo for a few CS100 copies sold, then the main winner would be the lawyers! The concept of the Wee Chipper has been around in various formats for a long time and it would seem that an ungentlemanly business act took place in that they didn't/couldn't spend the resources to develop their own version and found it easier to emulate ours with a few changes. The morals of the organ grinder and scruples of his monkey?
  13. Absolutely uncanny the similarity between the Peruzzo and the far better original CS100! But then again, they were our dealer in Italy and just plagiarised the units we sent them!
  14. Just a thought. What is it on? Some grinders always work with the engine tipped frontwards. While within the capabilities of the oil pump, it may have an effect?
  15. Plug on left looks okay to me! Is it the carb version or efi?
  16. Maybe PITA running gear?
  17. With a previous Rep's express, an Isuzu Rodeo, I got 120k out of a set of BFG's. Mind you, that was on road and we spend a deal of time going up and down the main roads and motorway's!
  18. BFG's, I find they last a bloody long time, decent compromise for road and some off road without being right mud pluggers! I try to keep on top of tyre pressure and corner/corner/left/right swaps too.
  19. Call Simon at Jas P Wilson and they will help you with your problem. 01556 612 233
  20. Call Bill Johnston at TH White, they are the current importer and will be able to help! 07850 384530
  21. In a way, I agree with whistle blowing. But Assange broke his bail conditions and thinking that the law does not apply to him means that he should go to jail. His 7 years in an embassy is his fault, not the judiciary. My views on people who sign up to obey orders and then commit a traitorous act may appear skewed but, the whole basis of the services is that you obey orders. Dirty things happen in war and that is a separate issue. If you don't like the principles of sign the OSA, then you don't sign up. Assange's organisation aided and abetted a crime. However distasteful the subject matter.
