    Spent the last 4 days reading this thread and it is so informative and the information reviews help and advice shared is absolutley amazing and seeing how much a mini excavator can change a buisness is unreal even the support to eachother is absolutley amazing from the "tree feller" being attacked by arsonists to simple things just like achey backs ect really glad i signed up to Arbtalk now even had someone help me get help with my dyslexia in here to get help with my theory test Jack

    Oh I get you now ? there doesn't seem to be any fairly tidy 4x4 for sale at a good price the cheap ones are knackered and the good ones are like 10-15k the new Isuzu dmax utility new are 20k so either way I'd need finance so don't know wether to pay the extra 5k and get the 3 year dealer warranty and also unabused? Mind boggles trying to think of what's best option and a 10x6 Ifor tipper new is 6k locally need to have a sit down look at competition mainly travellers and see if I can make it work or just say bugger it and just get a job working for a arborists company if I have any local

    Cheers for that always heard about the l200 being unreliable but then apparently the shogun is amazing for towing ?

    At the minute he has his car license amd that is it but hes going in for his trailer tickets and then hes on about doing his class 3 which is upto 7.5 tonnes or something? but i said it might of been easier for him just to do his class 2 so that is rigid wagon upto 32 tonnes apparantley ?

    Thats what i mean my partners grandad has been driving since he was 17 and now hes 72 and i asked him to do a online mock theory test and he failed scored about 20-30 he even said in all his years driving some of the signs on the test hes never seen never mind know the meaning of and thanks for the idea ill give it a go and see if i can manage it

    I had the voiceover on the 2nd time and it speaks to fast so i cant get a chance to think about the answer im gonna phone them tomorrow and see if they can suggest anything the reason i cant get proper support is because my school told me i had dyslexia but they never diagnosed me so i havent got the proof and i cant get intouch with my school as it was demolished 2 years ago now ?
  11. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Ive been in and done it twice now keep passing the hazard perception but on the actual questions i keep failing it by 2 or 3 questions so just need to keep trying it isnt hard to answer them the hardest part is actually trying to read the questions
  12. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Thank you spell check helps a bit so i dont look like a fool haha i cant find any taxi drivers wanting to tow a mini digger behind them and fill the boot with sand and cement ??
  13. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Cheers for the info appreciate it ☺ im really trying to get my license but struggle really bad with dyslexia and i cant get any help with my theory so its a matter of keep on trying and hopefully i will eventually pass it thats why for the miniute i have a lad working for me who can drive so im not completley stuck but would rather be able to drive myself
  14. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Id of thought itd be a lot more expensive to maintain and there wouldn't be a need for a mechanic as it would all be motors and electrics or am I being numb?
  15. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Hopefully they stop with all that stupid stuff cordless tools fair enough but leave cars and vans as they are can't imagine a wagon towing 44 tonnes of whatever relying only on battery power absolutely stupid idea
  16. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    I could do or i can employ someone full time to chaufer me about and earn a good wage day in day out ?
  17. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Wil have to have a google search and see what the verdict is
  18. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Ive looked at them but i couldnt afford one even with a loan. There a further on down the kine when im a multi millionaire investment hopefully ☺
  19. Jwoodgardenmaintenance

  20. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Just been offered a mk6 transit tipper with 130k miles on the clock with 12 month mot £1500 just not sure what to go for heard the 2.4tdci has unreliable injectors and the tddi has a really bad fuel pump
  21. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    would they need a class 2 or 3 license to drive them?
  22. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Would the 6.5 ton require a tacho ?
  23. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    Just looked on google never heard of one there a really nice truck look expensive though
  24. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    The iveco also do a 5 ton version aswell i think ? Ive heard the mercedes sprinters are really bad for rotting and really scabby paint after a few years unless this is just the old ones?
  25. Jwoodgardenmaintenance
    They really seem to hold their weight in gold theres no such thing as a cheap landrover apart from the free landers and tbh there ugly and a wanna be 4x4 may as well just buy a suzuki jimny instead ?
