  1. I had the older ballerio forrestello machine for over 4 years with the Subaru engine it was fantastic no problems whatsoever, this one however is very disappointing! I have already spent my own money getting it fixed once, Im certainly not going to again when it has 6mth warranty left. I may just have a Friday afternoon machine?
  2. No don't like to slate but, 6 months old still with warranty and had; - poor crimp blew hydraulic pipe losing all oil and getting covered. - had problems with the supplied pto - pto pump gets hot and ram doesn't move until cooled down. - splitting head pins broke - oh and just blew another poor crimp on a different pipe losing all oil again. Only had about 20 cube through it, Spoke to riko apparently pipes are not covered in warranty. I'm awaiting a response from Riko about getting the splitter collected its been a week so far but in fairness Jim may be on holiday. No not impressed as sold my old balfor road tow which was spot on to get this.
  3. Hi Jon, its handy when there's a power cut too mate.
  4. I just sold my V70 and got a Turbo Subaru estate goes like stink with the pro drive pack.
  5. Not much nice about that Jon! I want Sunshine!!
  6. Hi Jim, Have you received my emails regarding getting the splitter fixed. Appreciate if you could get back to me with a solution as not the best time to be minus a working splitter, Thanks.
  7. I borrowed that huge dumper but I got it stuck and had to rope it through that wet bit, took some doing but pleased its out :-)
  8. Managed to get the trailer back to the yard mate and some cord, Boy its boggy, bogged down the dumper where you got stuck :-)
  9. Looks like you were lucky! A bit higher and that would have been eye watering!!
  10. I pulled this through with no problems :-)
  11. I towed the landy and chipper more than once, only coz my tyres didn't fill with mud!
  12. They get stuck easy though!! Yep that's being towed out by a herm, Ford Ranger
  13. Unless she looks like this!
  14. Don't know then, There were lots of awesome and VERY expensive bits of kit there!! The twisted land rover sounded awesome, some one said it was 700hp but not sure how true that is.
  15. I didn't take many pics unfortunately, there were literally hundreds and hundreds of landys I did noticed a black utility but it was for sale £35k might not have been your mates though?
  16. I got this as a cheap run around and as a spare 4x4 for £1500
  17. Hi Jon, I've got a vid of the new bowler 550hp going around the track but can't load it up for some reason.
  18. They were used to move the timber for the offroad course in the main arena.
  19. Any one go to the Land Rover show this weekend at Peterborough?
  20. I would rather finance than use all my spare cash. I always try and put at least half down and spread the rest if buying new machines its mostly 0% so why wouldn't you? It's also good to offset against tax and you still have an assert at the end.
  21. If you have a yard a chipper or shredder is the way to go
