    just out of curiosity can you tell me where nearest stockist is in scotland, aberdeenshire? After a miserable time using a vibro plate today i may make the switch in my own kit for firewood and hedges. Edit to add the plate was burning oil like you wouldnt belive from a hire company, definetly not a pleasant job

    300 tdi 90, run on veg oil in the summer and then diesel in winter. stick on some bgg muds and 2 inch lift using terrafirma expedition big bore shocks. perfect for in the woods. make it more comfy and fun with a heated front screen and heated seat kit. happy days.

    coverking ones - brilliant. i once left sunroof on a disco open and came back to find a puddle on seat cover, none had gone through. dont use anything else and a very good price. machine washable and chuck in the tumble dryer. every landy i have had i used them
  23. david wood
    Alex, Can you ask the red cross trainer to provide a source for that info please, would be very interested in where they get info from. David Edit to add - on the celox

    filling stations 18 miles away been manic all day, will look out window with interest tommorow to see what local tesco is like but betting the silly que tonight it be even worse. this is one of the few rare moments i wish i had my old 200 or 300 tdi landys to run on pretty much anything including veg oil. Just cause i cant afford to be off the road with idiots panic buying until after the 6th.
  25. david wood
    Hey Jon, Hate to imagine what it cost to fill 110 tonight, my 90 was a lil on empty - guess 2 days running on warning does that lol. Although now know it goes further into red than i thought.... £88 to fill, thats most i have ever put in. £200 in last week on fuel between landy, log splitter and saw, its getting frightening. apparently local garages went mad tonight with panic buying so bet we all out tommorow.
