that looks eye wateringly expensive ..... cost me £6k in bits once for a Demag single reduction winch drive ... tha's double isn't it ?

New genuine unit from doosan £2050 + vat, was cheaper than all 3rd parties in the uk

On with the bells Again, front suspension struts sitting low so needing a bit of gas to lift her up.

Then next day a burst hose on another bell, this took one heck of a stripping to get to, ended up having to remove the hydraulic accumulators to gain access

I do like the look of them but standard spec aren’t cheap. I dread to think what the one you have there will cost!

This one was fairly decent spec with a list of extras, £38K was price for this new, was a cancelled order as when arrived they hadn’t installed the cruise control, after a few long runs, Glasgow to Banff, it badly needed it as I found the throttle pedal heavy after a while

There is a company that offers plug and play cruise control for most vehicles with an obd port not particularly expensive and it's what alot of dealers will fit any way

Very nice van, it’s up their on the list, this one is a cancelled order from someone in Inverness as it’s didn’t come with cruise control.

If I was to order it would be standard high top, 4x4 180hp auto, upgraded suspension, suspension seat

May aswell splash the extra for the 4x4 over the rwd as it works out lighter some how, only thing with the 4x4 is it’s only rated to row 3T

How are you finding it?

It was Robert Wright that was telling me you had got a 4x4 version so that prompted me to speak with man, didn’t realise they did a 4x4.

 

[Pedrod355]

Yeh can’t fault it, nice & comfy to drive, plenty power for towing too, the 3T limit was a disappointment but the way i see it is am closer to been legal than with the transporter!

The led light upgrade is a must, i unticked the heated suspension seat for led package but wishing i just got them both now, heated windscreen, internal roof rack was good options am glad i went with.

Was hearing you had a fun day in Lochaline! bet you wont be racing back.....
