  1. 2005 L200 top spec Animal. Thought I'd list this here before it goes on eBay. Would make good shooting truck or daily work truck. Engine light is on due to EGR been blanked off but has been like this for at least 2 years and runs absolutely fine. No smoke. Few spots of rust and a few dents, the paint isn't great on the roof (which you can't see unless you're very tall), the lacquer on the inter-cooler pod is flaky, this isn't a show truck but it's not bad - see pics. I've had it at least 6 years and I've serviced it myself in that time and I can't seem to find the service book anyway but there is a few receipts from before I had it. 104k miles but it had a rebuilt engine less than 10,000 miles ago. I can't find the receipts for the work but it was well over a grand. I'll try to contact the garage that did it for a copy invoice to prove it but if I can't get one, you'll have to take my word for it, or not. New turbo recently - I do have the receipt for that! Front tyres are recent, rear could do with replacing. Slight oil leak where dip stick tube bracket has snapped and the dipstick is a bit loose. No oil marks on the drive so I haven't bothered sorting it. I do have a canopy for it but the G-clamps that held it to the bed were a bit ropey so I took it off and have now lost the clamps. The canopy has been under a tree for a few years and I'm not sure of the condition of it now but it will be included if you want it and can take it away. Which reminds me, the canopy rubbed against the body above the back window and there is a patch where the paint has come off and surface rust- easy fix. Black and white leather seats with no rips. MOT til October 2017. I've been honest in the listing, it's a good truck, engine and gear-box are great, 4x4 high and low engage and operate as should, rear diff-lock works. pics at http://s347.photobucket.com/user/lovettwright/library/L200 Collection from Worcestershire £3995 as is or £4500 and I'll put a new MOT on it, new rear tyres and a get it serviced.
  2. If the other offers fall through, I'll take it for 300
  3. I have 2 slabs plus 5 boxes (625 total) of Gamebore Velocity+ 12g 7.5 28 gram plastic. £100 or swap for 2 slabs of Fiocchi TT1 28 gram 7.5 plastic. SGC holders only. Collection from near Evesham, Worcestershire.
  4. It wouldn't make a difference if it was £1 for a million tickets, it wouldn't alter your odds of winning.
  5. What the **** are you on about? I suggest you learn a bit about Bill Gates and his philanthropy. I am not a liberal, nor an American but I have a huge amount of respect for Mr. Gates and the work his foundation does. To say that it's to avoid paying tax only goes to demonstrate how ignorant you are. If you don't want to be poor, educate yourself and work hard or come up with a good marketable idea and start your own business. Also the National Debt is over 1 Trillion, Mr. Gates is very rich, but not that rich.
  6. Screwing in to wood is perfectly okay. It is what my FEO advised me to do. Just think logically, a coach bolt in to structural timber is going to be stronger than a rawl plug in a brick.
  7. There's got to be timber somewhere. There's no way the roof sits on top of hay bails, compressed or not!
  8. No worries. I'm there at least every other Saturday so if you fancy some practice there in the future, send me a message.
  9. Hi Paul. You're a bit too far south for me to meet up on the regular. Ian Coleys is about an hour from you, I go there on my own every other weekend if you fancy joining me. They have a great pay as you play sporting layout (but expensive at 39p a clay). I'll be there this Saturday (15.04.17) lunch time if you fancy it.
  10. Hi Paul. I'm in a very similar situation to you but in Worcestershire. Whereabouts in Wiltshire are you and what do you shoot?
  11. Thanks for the offer, labstaff. I grew up next to Cocketts but moved 10 years ago. I've never shot there but have a Mother's Day visit so thought I'd pop in, hence the request.
  12. I'm going to Farnsfield tomorrow and wondered if anyone here was going to be there and minded a relative newbie tagging along with them?
