  4. Dosent look like much of a work horse.....
  5. Looked at the Ford Ranger Ben? Mines been great, and everyone i know whos got one rates them.
  6. Hitlers responce to the new Defender concept. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZTSShysjWA&feature=related]Hitler Reacts to Land Rover DC100 Announcement - YouTube[/ame] Funny stuff, i agree with him, on this subject.
  7. Just shows land rover don’t care about working vehicles anyone, more interested in producing chelsea tractors I think whatever the new defender turns out like, it will be a bitter disappointment to most.
  8. Get some more pics up of your Landy yeti! I love old series landrovers Thinking about buying one myself.

  10. http://www.milneroffroad.com/categories.asp?cID=13220 Cheap Ford Ranger Parts & Accessories @ 247 Spares Save Up To 80% Today I haven’t used either, but ive heard positive things about milners. id probably look there first if i needed anything for my ranger.
  11. I don’t see how anyone can accurately predict the weather so far in advanced. Just have to wait and see. hopefully we will have a Scandinavian winter
  12. Bought a stihl hs81r the other week, excellent hedge cutter, vibration is very low, and plenty of power, most people i know seem to use stihl hedge cutters.

    Our first dog!

    Lovley Looking Dog, be interesting to know what she is crossed with.
  14. Sorry to hear it, Ill keep my eyes out for it.
  15. Excellent trucks, ive got a 52 plate ranger and the chap i work for has 08 ranger, they get worked hard, and stand up to the abuse.
  16. £3000 will get you a decent Ford Ranger Ben. Exelent trucks
  17. Ive got a Ford Ranger atm, which is expensive to insure and run(fuel), its an excellent truck, and great for working locally, most my work is within a 10 mile radius, but if i you have to travel quite a distance to a job or want to go and visit family and friends in other parts of the country it costs you dearly in fuel. A small van would be far cheaper to run. But i do forestry work as well, so need some off road ability. Might invest in a Quad. It depends what you do, but a lot the time there isn’t one vehicle that will do everything you want. Ideally id like to have a economical road going vehicle for carrying tools, and a Defender for the off road work.......... and a nice selection of trailers but us younger chaps will have to wait until we can afford more kit.
  18. Im thinking about buying a small van, so this thread is giving me some ideas. But i like it to be able to tow a small trailer, sometimes full of logs, so i would be interested in the towing weights of your vans, and how capable they are. Was also wandering if you can fit AT tyres to them as well? Im Guessing small front wheel drive vans can get pretty far off road if you wanted

    Chain saw PPE

    First time ive ever heard that you need type C for the assessment, when i did mine you only needed type A's. Im pretty sure you only need type A's for cs30/31.
  20. Im currently wearing some Sip Progress, very pleased with them, would recommend. But i don’t know what would be considered the "best" trousers are, all down to personal preference.
