different tool completely, only 5 seats for starters. Remember if your a nfu member you get an extra 5% off whatever price you haggle with the dealer.

our council operates a free permit system. If you have a trailer (single axle only) or a van, signwritten or not, you HAVE to apply for a permit. Send the V5 and you get 20 tickets to last the year. Works fine.

got a makita one in the end as its half the price of a stihl. going well so far.

put 10 ton in that tiny tipper bed and it would flatten it.

Wouldn't the chipper benefit from the feed chute being able to be angled up so the weight of the branches force it through as it seemed to stop a lot.

driving through London a few years ago, this was on the side of a battered transit driven by a turban wearing gentleman. "you've tried the cowboys, now try the Indians"

Thank her from us all from paying off the national deficit single handedly with the Benefit In Kind on a disco company car

quite a few disco's out there with over 200k on the clock. used by the fake police wombles on the motorways. The only real difference on the old base models was no air suspension which is just crap. they still have EGR/park brake etc I use local garage to service and do routine stuff and no more expensive than the audi.

ignore the above! Body doesn't have to come off to do belts etc I've had 4 of them all commercials and they are fine. Every motor gets a failure. Get a later model one. They make jap crap look like toys, and are effortless at towing.

We use pole and laser a lot for groundworks obviously. This digger mounted version looks bloody good and has potential to save a fair bit of manual labour checking levels. The fact you can move the digger around a site and keep the datum without getting out the cab is great.

Our stihl cutter is slowly dieing. So looking to replace. As its on the building it gets abused non stop by the subbies. I did have a new husqvarana one on hire for a couple days and it was very good, dead easy start. They pretty dear to buy though and not sure how they will hold up on site. I see Makita have a new one as well with better specs than the stihl and for a good price. Any opinions from owners ?

where do people buy in from, what's going rate for an arctic load ?

Have a long run of fencing to do so looking at an auger. Quite a few brandless ones kicking about for 150 quid. It will get some abuse being on a building site so worth investing in a known make ? Any recommendations ?

does look a nifty little machine but crazy money.

It's out tomorrow, booked into a midnight screening at the local IMAX later. The original really kicked off the whole CGI in a big way, one of my favorite scifi movies. Fingers crossed this one is upto par!

i have the cat s60 coming, free upgrade! Can't function without a smartphone for emails etc.

go for a 2.7 tonner instead much much better tool and can still be towed by a landy. The 1.5 is ok but crap for proper jobs like footings, pulling stumps out etc. moneywise there wont be much difference but will make your life a lot easier if having to use it a lot. The hydraulics on the 2.7 tonners is nowhere near as jerky, much smoother and of course it wont fall over as easy like the little 1.5 tonners. You wont lose money on them if you get a lowish hours machine, our local plant hire firm says his 2.7 tonners although 4 years old are worth same now if not more than he paid for them!

be interested in some reviews of the CAT phone, android as well which is a plus. Costs the same as a samsung galaxy so competitive.

damn scary when it happens for sure. Only had it once,was towing a cherry picker, own wheels not on a trailer, with a new defender 90. On the M5 it just started to go for no reason I could discern other than road surface. I just took foot of throttle and let the train weight slow it down until the snake stopped. Back up to 55/60 again same as before and no snake again. I dont think its the motor or trailer or it would do it all the time. Some combination of truck, trailer, road surface and weather more likely. My money on sidewind.

very interesting. Would a split system air conditioner be a better solution as they will be much more efficient that oil rads ? I would be inclined to glue sheets of celotex all over the sided and roof to insulate it even more. Maybe have an industrial dehumidifier as well, the type jewson hire out to dry flooded homes.
