  1. How can you say your battered van gains you work? It's just another point of view do your clients say I picked you because you have a ratty old van?
  2. Maybe then again I run a new truck (3 months old) I find I gains me work as it looks professional.
  3. Are you sure your mates are really making that rate per day?
  4. Love that how powerful is the engine and what weight is it?
  5. All trucks don't do it I ran an l200 for 5 years and it never did it. My dad has run rangers for 6 years no trouble and he had a navara as well again no trouble . I'm on a navara now and six months in no problems. Argue until it's fixed
  6. It may cost more than £40 I'm just guessing on cost in relation other steel I've had machined at the place I go to. The guy run his metalwork shop in conjunction with the fabricators. I know the guy and any stuff he does for me he does on his lunch break so it takes time!
  7. You should be able to get one made for about £40 I suspect. I use a place local to me and I need to go if you could give me exact dimensions/sketch I could ask while I'm there.
  8. Also known as that's ******* spiky!!
  9. I like them too got to keep on top of them though as you say
  10. I've got a church yard I look after the grass cutting and hedges etc. Usually about 7-8 weeks before payment. I asked why such delays and he claimed the church was a small charity!!!
  11. It's sad that they won't just stick to the main mans word of mouth. Gone are the days of a handshake being enough!
  12. That's no good though is it mate. Maybe you can knock some tax off but it's not right mate they should pay up !
  13. My parish is the same only have occasional waits on payments as cheques have to have 2 signatures on them so the clerk has to round 2 people up to sign!
  14. How much for a shipping container?
  15. I do a lot of work for my parish council. I've found the best way for getting work and also payment is to have a good relationship with the clerk!!
  16. Don't have one but try l and s engineers
  17. That was what it added to the pl insurance.
  18. That sound ok to me I've hit 10k @ just under £300
  19. Is that driver included? Nice bit of kit by the way!!
  20. That sounds like that lock on my small trailer. I've never had a bothered locking it as its only ever used in jobs that are either secure gated houses or when I'm fetching or taking something somewhere
  21. Thanks for that👍 I have the ball thing that I use when not hitched up. And it's always locked to truck behind a locked gate when I leave it somewhere So what do the ifors have? Never looked at one that closely.
  22. Should stay worth a grand for ages yet
  23. Can't complain for a grand how many miles in it?
