  1. I tried to buy the Dunlop Terrior wellies in September and (luckily) the shop had missing stock so couldn't complete the order, I went for the Aigle Iso neoprenes and they are amazing. Really comfortable and pretty warm, only had them for a few months but they feel much better made than my previous Le Chems which lasted five years. Like wearing high end trainers comfort wise. They were only £100 on Amazon too but have now shot up again, Decathlon only do the dark green colour rather than the lighter teal green too. I still fancy some Dunlops for summer maybe but wont ever buy Seeland again after two pairs went in a matter of weeks, John Norris replaced them with money off the Le Chems
  2. My seven month old seeland wellies split on both heels and so I phoned JN expecting to be fobbed off, they sent a courier and then called the next day offering a full refund or the money off another pair. Great customer service, I just hope the Le Chems last longer
  3. I did mine and took it out complete, it is very heavy! As said above there is no way I would do it without a ramp and transmission jack, good luck
  4. '07 plate with 70'000 on it, 30-31mpg as long as I don't drift it too much. You get a lot of truck for the money and hear of very few faults, the 16v '07 onwards are a lot nicer to drive than the older models and mine is doing 2300rpm at 70mph where as the earlier models that I drove were revving much harder.
  5. It's over budget but my terrano is in the for sales section at £700. But has an mot and is local
  6. Thank you, I wish I could keep it as its more practical than the ford ranger for most things and certainly better in the sticky stuf
  7. One gearbox and then a transfere box with selectable 4x4, I assume thats what you mean re. The suzuki?
  8. Its never been very bad for me so its suprising they have hammered you, shame though.
  9. Hello Nick from a fellow Cambridge shooter, I have always found Simpsons in Newmarket to be good for guns. Ben
  10. Drop to £700 to save removing the lamp handle for a trade in, this is a lot of shooting truck for the money
  11. I live west of Cambridge but the truck is in Milton which on the north edge of the city
  12. Sorry for the poor quality, will get some better ones later. Forgot to say it has a tow bar and electrics
  13. I will be out for most of Saturday but could do mid morning or anytime on Sunday. Ben
  14. Will get some pics up tomorrow, it's a '99 V plate.
  15. I am selling my black Nissan Terranno 2.7tdi estate with seven seats, selling due to a new pick up. I have owned it for three years and used it for the commute to work and regular lamping, it's been very reliable apart from a clutch plate failure at 140k miles and a dead battery last year. It has 11 months MOT but no tax, two keys but neither remote work so you have to unlock manually. It scrubs up ok but has a bit of a shooting truck smell although I have hoovered it out, it also has a light force remote handle and a dimmer switch mounted between the sun visors. The body work is fairly good apart from where the colour has peeled on the bumpers, it has had patches welded to both sills and to the left rear inner wing. The engine and gearbox are solid even though it has just passed 160k miles, the advisories from memory were, Rusty brake and fuel pipes- will probably need to be one next year or the year after Corroded front inner wings- non structural so I have left them Cracked headlight glass but the beam image is still fine Worn front anti roll bar link bushes Front diff leaking oil- it takes about 100ml a year so I have left it alone and topped up when needed. It pulls to he left a bit on fast roads. If it sells for the asking price I will leave the remote handle, dimmer switch and chuck in a big lamp with red or amber filter. Two spare mud terrain tyres that have only done a couple of thousand miles that go on every winter. A parrot Bluetooth hands free kit. Vehicle located in Cambridge, sure I will have forgotten something important so please ask.
  16. Spoke to someone on a shoot who has one, he is getting calls weekly offering shooting as they do so little damage and go everywhere. I am so so jealous, what a cracking little shooting wagon
  17. Please tell me the technique, I come home feeling like I have had the **** kicked out of me. The hatch looks very good!
  18. I think I passed 30 donations last time so should be able to rack up a good number by the time I croak if I stay healthy, I'm O rh neg too which is always in demand although every drop of every type counts.
  19. Using a tenterfield fox whistle is like making love to a beautiful woman, you need to take things slowly and use your tongue
  20. Getting an '07 thunder this weekend, it was really nice to drive compared with my old nissan and you seem to get a lot for your money compared to other pick ups. Just hope the dog likes going in a cage out in the open because she isn't going to be running around in the cab..
  21. If for any reason this falls through then can I be next in line? Cheers
