  1. Sachs famous advertising said the 166 was "strong as a bull" so in the PNW it became known as the bull. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b7/traktorist2222/verschiedenes/Dolmar166-2.jpg but did you know this: McCullochs range of Dolmar chain saws ............... http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/picture-forum/15823-oak-milling-sachs-dolmar-166-a.html atleast it went to a good home. Where the hell did Flaming Ace go tho? For me, the Sachs Dolmars epitomised the glory years.
  2. Yes; 10x5 tipper. Flippin solid. I really liked the Bateson when I looked at it (a bit more refined than the nugent) but Roger Young Saltash* and 3.5t** made the decision.
  3. Trailers | Nugent Engineering
  4. My back is still killing from those hours in a bling navara yesterday with full leather
  5. another reason for sticking with dol and not mak then. Dol haven't gone there yet (query 6100). Oh another, Echo. So called rubbish. My cs600 has now cut over 12,000 tonnes of larch and 1500 tonnes firewood without a hitch....
  6. I have the same truck (04) and am well overdue a new one. But what's the point as it just keeps working and it gets proper abuse in the woods everyday. Never let me down in 140,000 miles. Sorry you've got a bad one.
  7. Dolmar They're coming...!
  8. 1) Open grab. 2) Insert thief between tongs. 3) Close grab until thief struggles to breath, leave for 24 hours. 4) Fully close grab.
  9. Oh the 166! Should never EVER have sold mine!!! What a saw! Parting with the 133 was a dumbass thing to do too.
  10. Spent 8 hours in a 14 reg Navara yesterday; not good. Noisy, and underpowered. Didn't feel like 190PS altho hasn't run-in yet. Reversing camera was nice. Leather seats gave me back ache. Engine turning at 2000 rpm at 60 mph in 6th - strikes me as a bit low geared.
  11. +1. Mine's the older 9hp one tho, what's the new 6hp like?
  12. wake up and smell the BS, sorry coffee.
  13. Damn and blast it, really wanted to go but just about the busiest I can be so not a cat in hells chance.
  14. £5k?! Buy both!!! That's cheap as nick unless they're nothing but scrap..
  15. How are the traps species selective?
  16. Asian Hornet - British Beekeepers Association (BBKA) http://www.bbka.org.uk/files/library/vespa-velutina-asian-hornet_1319053310.pdf
  17. Forget the double cab!!! I have one and will never have another. Single cab - likewise, can't recline the seat enough... EXTRA-CAB is the answer. Everyone I know who's got a new pickup over the last 6 years at least has gone down the extra/super/extended/club cab route. As much space in the back as no wasted space under seats and the tub on a new hilux extra-cab is as big as the one on the old single cab... win win with extra cab imo.
  18. What about? S1 Safety Shoes from engelbert strauss
  19. In very good condition, done approx 250 hours work on a 20" b&c...
  20. OP Cosworth - TJ 1210a available if you are interested...
  21. from me. Smelly, noisy, costly... not polite but honest opinion.
  22. The 341 was a downtuned 361 (smaller carb, nothing else), completely identical otherwise. From memory 4 vs 4.6 hp. I could never understand the point; why would you have a 341 when it would leave you wondering about having more power? Surely not a few quid?
