That was my next step m8 tbh, find a decent wagon and get one built, but fingers crossed I have found one now, won a crewcab on ebay, the guy is putting a new ticket on it as we speak, looks ok from the few pics of it, but he has already had a neg from selling it last time but was being sold with no mot then , so the proof will be in the pudding when i go to collect, if its a bucket i'll walk away, at least it will have a ticket this time though.

Will update after collection :D

Exactly! bad news mate...

Update though, picked one up today, not exactly what I want, but its tax and mot'd and on the rd, just a 6 month stop gap truck i think, just so as i can actually earn some money again from the cars :roll: to get some funds to get one built, at least that way I get bang on the cre cab and bed I want :D

No mate, a tranny from ebay, was on for an hour and phoned bloke up and done a deal as long as i collected next morning, it's not the prettiest truck and its petrol, but had a top notch winch and decent vision alert lightbar, but with the scrap so high as you know its hard work finding one ready to go not at millions of quid!

Had to lower my standards for the time being :roll: to be fair though it can't be that bad as it done the 150 odd mile home with a mondeo on the back and on 30 quid of fuel

Only one bonus with petrol is the scrappers can keep it fueled up :lol: even if it is wierd to drive without a diesel cackle :lol:

Lol hearing the radio is always a plus, especially on those long boring journeys across the country plodding along with the artics overtaking you :roll:

Any luck on the petrol truck you were off to see mate?
