  4. Must be good if youve had 3!! Like ive said ive had a mitzi and apart from it being a bit of a screamer on the motorways it was a decent enough work vehicle, all i,m wanting is a cheap single cab to ferry my fishing gear about and saws and firewood, fairly comfortable to drive and simple to fix

  6. Yeah forest tracks and fields is about as off road capable as i need
  7. Whats the best off road? Mpg? And simplicity to fix? Cheers
  8. I dont think it,ll do much towing just me and gear to the woods and back, firewood and ferrying pots and nets to and from the boat
  9. I had an old 52 plate l200 that was fine till it blew up at 155,000! See quite a lot of high mile rangers still going strong though!
  10. The 2 ive been offered are round the £1500 mark and local to me so no travelling involved
  11. True, what are rangers like though??
  12. Wanted a cheap single cab been offered a 52 plate ranger with 70,000 and an l200 with 87,000, both the same money, both about the same condition, had an l200 before but never had any experiences with rangers, what do you fellers think?? Decisions decisions??

  18. My mate has a navara same year as mine with auto box and its far juicier than my manual
  19. I had a 130 tipper and all though it was handy for arb work it was a chore to drive, even on short distances! My navara on the other hand i would happily drive to the moon and back in perfect comfort with a trailer and far better mpg!
  20. Ive dropped a couple in the water when doing willow clearance on rivers for EA, dried them out and theyre still running fine today
  21. I have one like that! The cap is really stiff aswell, when you open it youve got to wiggle it out with quite a bit of force!
