There's a hole either side in the top on the back of it. There is water coming in through one of the back doors (of the truck) and it has failed to start twice (Electrical or computer). Even the AA, when called out by Ford couldn't sort it and abandoned it in a farmyard and took him home at about 10pm after giving up on it. He is rightly not a happy bunny. He will probably give it one more chance but if it fails again it will be going back and rejected as 'not fit for purpose'

If you buy a ranger and are a member of one of the shooting or countryside organisations (BGO or something like that? ) you can get a £5k discount. Thats what my mate got off his. The membership was only £30

Friend of mine had his brand new 66 plate ranger delivered last friday. Its already let him down twice and this morning the dealer offered to "hire" him a transit connect. You can imagine how that went down. The top on the back leaks like a sieve and the back door also has a leak when it drizzled with rain on Saturday. My advice - DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT BUYING A NEW FORD RANGER!!

Dont think so.

I used to have an 8x4 blueline plant trailer, best towing trailer I have ever owned including about 3 Ifor's. As long as you keep to their payload limits they are brilliant.

3mm is more like sawdust. Pellets will be 6mm or 8mm

Is that what they've put beside the A14 at Elmswell? I wondered what it was. Ridiculous place, there will be a load of accidents with vehicles going in and out within 40m of the roundabout and on a bend. Any other applicant would have had it refused for planning.👎

Sounds like they are on about recycled woodchip and haven't a bl@@dy clue what they are on about. Tell them it's virgin chip made from actual trees, yes real ones like the ones in their gardens.

Hi Plogs I would say its a very good price. Its certainly cheaper than I can get them for in my area. Woodworm -
Is there a demand for pine and spruce in England?

It became a bit of a hot topic when I posted your original post on there but it just seems that that's the way and we will struggle to change it. Good luck in your challenge and I really hope you manage to get him on site fairly soon.

The argument is that if he is working with a trained operator who then has an accident, they have no way of getting that trained operator to a hospital. Also most forestry roads are now classed as public roads so he would need a full license to drive on them. Don't get me wrong, along with most of them think it's a bit mad and that common sense has gone out the window but that's the way it is. Have had comments on there from Jim Walmer who has as many machines as anyone in Scotland but he says that's the way it is and they won't budget on it. The only way round it is to see if you can get him work on private estates but also to make sure your insurance would cover you for a 16 year old to work on site.

I have just put this query to a forestry group combining some of the UK's largest forestry contractors and the following was the response from one of them and backed up by others.... Fc won't let them work on there land till there 17 and have a driving licence!. Sorry to disappoint but it was the general consensus.

You must have been on the same course as Angus Stamper fella? I was there doing the Farming Course in 86/7 and it was the best year of my life. Fabulous setting, Hare and Hounds Pub and the wall of death in front of the Hall! -
Got my first 2 tickets. Great work once again Steve and once again for such a great cause.

During the torrefaction process you lose 30% of the mass but only 10% of the energy. You are removing almost all of the moisture (<2%mc)
