  6. the little blighterswill probably nick the sign and stick it somewhere stupid !
  7. yes i know thats why i said it was one of the last ERS policy renewals i got ! they warned me then that they were having difficultys finding an underwriter for comercial vehicles ! may have to try the NFU again but everytime i have they always wanted more or wouldnt cover me for such and such this or that ! lol they even told me at the age of 25 i shouldnt be driving a 200tdi landrover even when i was working on a farm at the time !! ha ha ha
  8. mone doubled in december with them im one of the last equity red star policys they did ! mind you mine was due to the trailer writing a saab off ! will be interesting to see what happens in december this year
  9. have oyu looked at Plumpton ? went there did ag many years ago they have big Arb and forestry side now
  10. if you dont mind the drive to kent its worth giving John Page Trailers a ring he has a vast stock could well have the trailer for you there and then ! and hes good to do a deal with ! David
  11. depends on your dealer mine holds a large stock i wanted my LM166g and he had three in stock ready to go !
  12. id always play two dealers off each other i knew where i wanted to buy my triaxle from but tried the two locall dealers and the on i wanted came up best ! always works there is reasonable movement on them from dealers !
  13. its a redneck hillbilly birth control machine lol
  14. ah incinerators that provide power and heat would be good for distric heating too ! and more recycling then least we would be on the right track and wasting of food just cause its not looking like the perfect potato/ fruit etc there natural they grow weirdly but taste the same !
  15. and lots of rapeseed too
  16. Dean thats uber cool
  17. i dont need to get over it lol i have worked on Jap motors too and euuughhhh yuk lol im perfectly normal if wwe know what normal is !
  18. im all for both turbines and nuclear ! they keep overruling the dungeness c station i think they should build it everyting is there for it in terms of infrastructure ! rail water and PYLONS ( I like Pylons) also we have 27 ish turbines on the marsh now too i like them took bit of getting used to but they have a roll im sure mopre efficient ones will come along soon !
  19. Umm maybe lol i live in a tied cottage and have a small yard / garden 60 foot long and 40 feet wide and there are 7 landrovers one chassis a16foot ifor a mini digger and a digger trailer and various other stuff oon it im not a nut honest ! lol
  20. Bearmach springs are the same price if not cheeper than landrover ones and like i said i have them on my 110 and bben there 10+ years still good ! the 130 and 110 rears are a larger diameter than the 90 or rangerover ones and there fore dont fit ! A 130 with genuine or aftermarket springs and assister springs that are the correct ones for the 3500kgs GVW will be fine ! antirollbars help no oend the right age you can get fron ARB too ! How do i know all this well only ever owning and running LRs fro all my driving life and working on many at work and for friends and colegues you tend to learn stuff ! Also i guess it helps that me and my best mate rebuilt his 130 from ground up including the engine gearboxes and basicly most of it onto a new chassis with the above suspention and converting it from dropdside to full three way tipper with engine driven independant hydraulics may have given me some backgrond to these reccomendations/ findings from beoing out there and doing it ! Oh and said 130 was cover fetured on an issue of LRM mid last year David
  21. My best mates 130 tipper we built we used Bearmach hevyduty blue 130 rears and standard landrover 130 helpers inside them this combination works really well he is often upto full weight on and off road and this has proved it self he does lots of towing too ! i use just the heavy duty 130 bearmach springs on my 110 and hell that takes a pounding too you get about 40 mm of lift with these or should i say the landrover stays higher than the sag with standard springs ! David
  22. Snow white and tree fellas lol
  23. :lol: Yup tis one of those that you hate to think about ! mind oyu he was a good cop as i had an incident with my trailer and a saab and lack of attachment to the 90 and the traffic officer turned up and i was telling him the regulations lol !
  24. A friend and his father who run a company working on fsarms all over had to have both the landcrusiers and his 130 tachoed after he got pulled by vosa ! his brother with there pickup and caravan they were not interested in lol he got a prohibition notice enforced with a time delay for him to get home then he had to rectify the issues and show this had been done before they could carry on he spent 3 - 4 hours stopped with Vosa and the police and he said they were very heplfull it was nerve wracking at first but once into it they were helpfull and he was let on way home with the notices to come into effect oce he was back at base !~ And im glad to read im not the only one to know about the issue with trailers plated to carry more than the tow vehicle is rated to being illegal
  25. as said aricultral is legal front trailer only loaded there is also a length limit and brakes and lights and iirc a speed reduction too ! i once brought two artic trailers with a mate with two close coupled also 6 miles down the road and back lanes ! tis interestng two four wheel trailers close coupled behind tractor turns take some thinking about if you dont wanna right off waiting cars or beach yourself in the hedge / roadside furniture/mables front garden !!!
