  1. The only time ive seen a 170 is in a shop and at college when a lass bought one cos a 260 was too heavy lol. Ive had a go on a 440e running a 18'' bar but would say that was pushing it and to be brought down to a 15/16'' bar. As for me if it wasnt in the prof product range i wouldnt give them much thought. Good luck though
  2. Best place bud, gotta keep our spirts high
  3. Very limited to what u can do with a 170 bud, but why do u ask? And what will you be using them for? Felling snedding etc
  4. U sure its not the 34bb model??
  5. Lmao its the mini boss or 009 stihl of course, and the lass is now scrubbed up and living under my stairs til the wife pops out
  6. Ive not worked out there as an arb, but i have spent half my life all over germany and its fantastic bud both as a child and serving over there. Another thing is the 100 year mortgages, urll grt proper summer weather and decent winters, cleaner and better way of life and the lasses arent half bad either lol
  7. Why dont u just get ur engine remapped. Its common settings will run on anything in any conditions. Having it remapped can better the mpg or speed etc whatever you like, speak to a garage that does this, it maybe a hit at first but would be better off in the long run
  8. Great if were not able to attend will you be keeping tabs and mail the person? Also i was wondering how the ££££ raised is spent, for example £50 feeds clothes a child for a week! Im non the wiser and would love to know
