  4. If not its not long since they stopped making them, id sooner one of those than a slightly beefed up van..
  5. From what you describe id say a Shogun commercial...its bigger inside than most small vans, tows 3.5 easily and will still go PROPERLY off road..the closest i can imagine to what you describe.
  6. Only ever had Landys for work, first was a 90, now on my 2nd 130 tipper. Mine have always been reliable.
  7. I've chosen never to employ anyone but my history with most subbys isnt much better. I hate to be ageist but those say under 30 nowadays seem not to have a clue!!! Not all but definitely a majority of them...
  8. Jesus Christ!!! Think again!! Unless you fancy dropping yourself into a pit of debt for training...kit...etc then every customer asks how cheap can you do the work for?! This industry is MASSIVELY under-valued and over saturated with every Charlie chainsaw...?
  9. I may try some of the Englebert Strauss Type A's..my SIP Progress feel like Type C's in warm weather...
  10. Get a proper case you tight bugger??
  11. Same here...i think Joshua struggles against quick hands..
  12. Carhartt Double Duck Logger trousers...use these whem i stump grind or hedges. All cotton very tough.
  13. Tomorrow the 2nd free and days next week.
  14. I've found thishappening more and more frequently...i perhaps used to get one like this every few months now these sorts are commonplace..absolute pain in the arse...just causing stress for no good reason
  15. Based in Clitheroe but willing to travel within reason. Tickets to 39. Chipper, tipper and tractor also available. Pete.
  16. Nope i know what you mean and your right i just know a couple of lads who were tempted by Mogs then ended up outta pocket ?
  17. I run a Tw125 and have been looking at some 8 inch machines to reduce snedding/faffing..i only chip into a 130 but have plenty chip drops and area is very rural. Afraid iv heard too many horror stories regarding Mogs and such repairs..etc
