I am Biased but i just love my 4.6 V8 Thor, it has been looked after, Head gaskets and servicing and so far apart from a cam sensor has not let me down. (i have now just cursed myself) I have the Stainless sport exhaust so also love the burble from it. It is a gas guzzler but as in Russia it...

Must admit its been a few years since i dealt with Island but they were always very good and got stuff to me in Russia in about 7 days. Rimmers are more expensive but have used them for tricky parts where you need to give the vin number to ensure its the correct years model for my P38 and they...

I had this issue with mine and would then often lock and need the EKA code to get started finally replaced the door assembly at yes an eye watering price from Rimmers but as I was taking the part to Russia had to make sure it was the correct part by supplying the VIN number. However after...

Too true, I had forgotten about the old kite mark. Good old British engineering.

Hmm CE Chinese export only joking but you never know.

Welcome to the looney zone.

Welcome to the looney zone, and yes your right proactive is better than reactive. If looked after these machines are great. I love mine. You will also find a great deal of help on here but also be prepared for a bit of stick as we area a humorous bunch.

pleased you are safe mate but I would be having some serious words with the tyre company, this checking your nuts after so many miles is just pure rubbish.

No problem, Overfinch shouldn't be a problem as far as I'm aware they don't bugger about to much with the electrics as they are bad enough as is. let us know how you go with the fuse and full battery. All the best mate.

Doesn't look like the factory unit, I have the same model P38 as you but the same radio as Henry B has posted so looks like an after market job.

Welcome to the loony zone:) A big battery around the same size is not a good start for these things as they are temperamental with electrics. As freelance said check the main fuse and try your right battery after a good charge. My P38 stands for 9-10 months a year due to working away, even...

Welcome to the loony zone:) Sounds like you have a great truck. I only worry about -18 to 22 in Russia with my P38.

Don't think Mark will be around for awhile, Went to his place yesterday and he has had to go to UK for an emergency run as his mum is not well. So wish him all the best.

On my trip back from Russia last week was sat at the hotel bar in Heathrow on the overnight stay and had to move tables as I was getting so wound up by 4 white guys on the next table. All clearly English but with hats on back to front and speaking gangster and waving hands like a windmill on...

Cool, Wish mine looked as clean as that. I have no leaks but mine is quite manky under there. Each year when I get home and off the stands I always say to myself must get it cleaned underneath and then the weather is crap and the weeks pass by and she's back on the stands again.

innit my brudder wees strutting about wive our pants falling down talking like a Jamaican even though grew up in Stratham.

Welcome back to the land of frustration and love.

Now back in France

Just luck I suppose, when I leave I disconnect it and when I reconnect I have a jump assist pack as there is never quite enough herbs in it to turn over. Sometimes I have to enter the EKA and sometimes not. I think that depends on how flat the main battery is. I then just give it a really good...

Funny one this and it buggers my system for a few days. Coming west to UK for 2 days then heading back east. Yes its mad but he who pays the piper and all that.
