  5. Big butts jon, right up your street mate!
  6. Looks a good bit of kit and thats a brilliant squirrel dervish!
  7. Thanksfor replies so far as its been causing me a headache! I was ready to place the order for the landy 130 on friday but im going to hold off until the type approval has been sorted. Lots of phonecalls to make on monday morning!
  8. Great, thanks for reminding me of them as I think I saw them at the apf but forgot their company name. I was very impressed with what they had done on a 130 at the show. Although I fear its not going to be a cheap project!
  9. Open to suggestions Pete but hoping for ally to keep weight down.
  10. Hi marc I bought my current defender 130 tipper from them last year. The chip box is ok but id like a few tweaks I.e ally all round. Rob seemed a nice guy and easy to deal with. I was going to give him a shout on monday regarding body type approval. Cheers mate
  11. Also forgott to ask, GRP or ally sides? I want lightwieght properties to maximise payload.
  12. Evening all, im ordering a new defender 130 truck cab from land rover next week, only issue is getting the tipper/chip box sorted. As its a chassis cab from the manufacturer ive been told ive got to get type approval for any body/tipper i have installed on the vehicle and a few companies ive phoned seem to be put off by this. Can anyone firstly recomend a body type style (pics would be great). I want a tool cab and chip box with barn doors and ladder rack. And also can anyone recomend someone/a company to build the tipper/chip box (preferably you have used them personally). I have a little bit of time to get it sorted as the vehicle will be on the production line for a while yet. Thanks in advance Pete
  13. I reckon that dog has been trained up for swamp logging

  15. But i forgot to say you need to wash them regularly to keep them looking smart
  16. Stihl xfit type c = awesome trousers, love em. Just wish they had more hiviz orange on them! Very comfy, and seem light when wearing them.
  17. That looks awesome! I was dreading my 30th but it was awesome when it came along. My missus arranged a suprise party with all my mates there. No hog roast though - were saving that for our wedding in May!!
  18. I ran from the landy to the front door half an hour ago and looked like a drowned rat!! The stour will be bursting its banks again for sure.
  19. Yes Jon i know what you mean mate. Cold and sunny would be perfect!
  20. And were back to blowing a gale and lashing down!
  21. I agree, look how far you've come from a quid, pushbike and a silky! Good things do happen for good people mate, and after our last chat your ideas sound good too me. P.s you don't need luck but i'll wish you all the best for next chapter.
