My name's chris some of you know me from the south east fog meets at the woods, Gregster has been pointing me this way for a while now.
I currently drive a jimny but iv had all sorts in the past but after my new arrival the jimnys not big enough so iv been thinking..... I don't want to give up off roading but I need a more space.
so over the next couple of months I'll be looking for a fronty I'm in no rush so will be able to take my time and get the right one.
Hope to get to know you all, as the ones iv met of you seem a cracking bunch.
See you soon chris

Watcha Chris, welcome aboard Going by the write up and pics, there was a reasonable 2.8 SWB on fleabay at £750 buy it now. Think you've missed the boat on that one but it will give you a bit of a guide as to what they're going for - when you can find them.

Wotcha, think we may have met already if that was you with the broken jimmy at the woods... Any way, welcome to the mad house...
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered ) Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left hereWork in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'Truck'Comments on 'Truck' the truck may be left hereOwning a 2.8 is a hobby in it's self...
