Loads of all of the above here but all parked up as projects in driveways. I got offered a D3 last week for 250 sovs needs a sill welded & the starter live rewired. Got new nobby tyres on it so he just wants the sale price of the tyres.

that’s exactly my thoughts unless it’s been welded but it’s just chasing the worm really. I don’t see any d2’s around here at all now, 2023 I saw two but I checked the reg plates last year as remembered them and they’ve been scrapped.. ironically...

Is it just me, or has the forum advert load just got insane recently? I mean, once I've slid up the drop down covering half the screen, I then get this kind of thing (screen shot from my phone) - It's madness. It's getting worse than...

Remove sender and dip the tank with a stick, compare reading to bottom of stand pipe, modify to suit.

Sorted it. Got fed up with faffing around and applied a little force to the new bolt. All good. Thanks for the suggestions.
