**** the wheels when you goona give me that winch?Is it hydraulic?Whats up with the colur scheme on the one in the back of the shot thats hidden!
haha i dont know what it is, says it can pull 4 ton tho!?
What i didnt mention tho is my Hiab, in the rear!!!
can lift 750 legally but i have been known to lift colse to a ton!!
Its totally standard, ex EDF Energy, came fome special vehicles like this, also has out riggers, and strengthened/plated chassis, twin battery, and the strobe flasher beacons. (less one beacon as i went through a drive thru bank with a 25' ladder straped on and made a scene, completly totaled the height barrier, went to own up wonam in bank said dont worry happns all the time,..... few)
other truck is also an Ex EDF, was originally a hard top 110 van, but now has the rear bulkhead and cab and roll bar from the old army 2.5n/a defender which finally died 3 years back. and also a new tail gate to replace the rear door.
Hence only half of the blue "e".
Ok well i can see you guys like your pics so heres a few i have to hand with out digging around too much.
heres a 360 of the hi cap
As you can see the interior is a little tired after almost 180k

The 'other' 110
Have loads more pics, but probseen enough of the drive now!
So as you can see my hi cap, which is my every day vehicle, is looking a bit tired.
hence why i bought the wheels, to smarted it up a bit.
Other plans are to sound deaden the interiot, new or referb seats, and maybe a dash up grade.
Also new bigger tyres, new heavy duty springs as the near side has sunk through hiab abbuse with out out riggers.
And ideally id like to respray it, i restore cars as a hobbby, so could do this for a few hundred quid.
I really like the bomatti (sp) grey the tomb raider colour i think.
I know some will say its a landy leave it, but it is my business vehicle and id like it to look more professional instead of "pikey"
Also on a personal level its my every day car, so why should i not be able to make it a pleasnt place to be in and also a car to be proud of!
