If your thinking of getting one don't Never had a problem with mine and plenty of other happy owners out there - check out ITOCUK for a slightly more balanced view!. Like any vehicle, there's always the odd one or two that are poorly looked after or ill-treated and don't last so well. Mine is up for sale, but not due to reliability - in 3 years it's had new glow plugs, a new battery and new rear brake pads and always starts everytime and has got me out of some hideously wet and muddy spots. I'm only selling it as we can't justify having 3 vehicles at the minute and the dedicated shooting truck has to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
