I went with Marslands as they had no wait whereas Richards was a few weeks.

As others have said, it is a TDCI chassis with extra brackets then galvanised. You specify which tank and engine brackets you want when you order, I went with a TDi and TD5 tank which worked quite nicely.

Personally I would go with Marslands again as you get a galv gearbox crossmember, and the A frame brackets. Got no complaints at all about mine.

Can't be doing bad if you can turn customers away for 3 months.

Looks like they offer 3mm steel as standard but 4mm and 5mm as an option as well

4mm would be nice... 5mm must be getting pretty heavy

Just ordered a Richards one for my 200 90, 8-10 weeks wait but I went for that over a marsdens because I didn't want a td5 rear cross member I wanted an original spec one.
Not a bad price at just over £1500 including galv gearbox cross member

Yep, much cheaper to collect if you have the means too. I live 10 miles from them and they want £75 to deliver it
