  1. Nice one, the p t o lever ( if its the pto running off transfer box) is to the left of the 4wd lever, if its standard military spec anyway! Most have been 'customised' over the years though . Real nice lorry that, Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  3. Yeah rang em today(Tree Surgeon Insurance), explained that I was gonna try and sort it myself, but if it gets nasty they are gonna step in
  4. The home owner is gonna get a photo tomorrow and P O insurance company are going to e mail me one, just so frustrating that a really cheap job is gonna cost me my excess and put up my premiums, was looking on the bright side until solicitors phone call, that alone has probably eaten my excess!

  5. Had a slight mishap with a rolling log and a Royal Mail van, log rolled down a bank and bashed the sill, slight dent, would probably cost up to £300 to sort, their solicitors rang up today wanting my insurance details saying they will send me the bill once it's repaired , however I m pretty sure the cost is going to be massive and so would like my own quote ( as my excess is £500), the solicitors day this is not possible? Shall I just get the lube out now or can I demand a different quote? Like a moron I didn't get a photo Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
