  1. caravan cover is the way to go big lined £10 second hand that will do the job even if i have to cut it im fine with that for the time being
  2. well it is a scimitar i will be getting but right now its just got a holl and this looks nice but i dont like the flat bits at the end so i may make something that looks a bit better if i could just get the surround part i can do my own but for in side thats a bit better looking i think the flat black bits dont look gun like at all .
  3. 190992492243 I did see this on E bay Heavy duty I am planning on building a big garage for my bikes and when its finished i will put a tall car port in front of it i think . i do have a costco card ill have to take a look what they do .
  4. The one to the right of the main gun there is only 1 as i understand . Its only the outer pice i need really
  5. the one next to the main gun any one got anything
  6. Assuming your not flash with a big barn or garage and have to park out side . What do you use to cover your vehicle . I have put a deposit down on a cvrt today and hopefully in week or just over it will be with me ., i will have to park on the drive . id like a big tent/gazebo to put it under so i can work on it in the dry but at the very least id like big cover for it so what do you have and were did you get it and does any one have anything . ?
  7. Sounds like a minter may be a little more then i have though .
  8. Its been some time i just gave up in the end got fed up its been a couple of years now and im still looking ive come across a few good ones from time to time even though im not reoly looking any more and they are sold just as i fined out about them literally that week or some is coming down to look the next day . Others are not really wanting to sell so ask way more then is sensible and they still have them as they dont really want to sell them any way, So i fingered what the hell every now and again its worth putting out a shout in case any one is genuinely thinking about selling something , im looking for a sabre , scimitar , scorpion
  9. I own and run a m'cycle forum and its wrecked a lot of posts entire threads of rebuilds with that photobucket picture in its place . a shame as so much has been lost . i use flicker now
  10. sweet tank ive been looking for 1 for a long time . Yours is a bit to nice for my pocket i missed out on a real nice one a few weeks back 20K not as nice as yours i dare say but looked sweet in the pics . If you decide your hanging on to it to long and really want to sell at a price i could live with you know were i am
  11. not very helpful sorry but its the same as my semi hi top transit van .
  12. there are a few abbots in the uk for sale quit cheep i put up the links last week i think 14K and 16K
  13. Well in the uk they are a lot more common and are no were near that price . but they are still hard to fine. If i dont get one before snow fall , i'll just call it a day and think no more about it . shame but i cant keep living in hope the hours ive put in to finding something is ridicules and i just dont have the time to keep keep looking
  14. Andy at the Avis farm has all the spares i will ever need ive been to his place and he has everything and i mean everything its all he does all day long like me and Yamaha RZ350 parts thats what i do for a living sell parts for this 1 type of bike he is the same for CVRT's and like me he has just about everything 100 times over so that s not a worry. Insurance often has a vehicle breakdown pick up service, AA or RAC all so do a breakdown pick up service to get you bacl home. Just like if a big tractor or HGV breaks down they have to get them back and all you need for this is a 12T beaver tail truck but that's up to them to sort out. Yes i need a H license to drive but they are just £70 and they come to your house to test you . The farmer across the road says i can have the use of his fields to drive about on all i think from Oct onward to get used to driving it. Insurance is less then for my van around £200 to £300 depending were you ask . I am 6ft and yes if the seat is up and view pice is fitted i cant get in but if the seat is down i can and if the viewer is out its even better. But basically seat down and im in. I have been in about 4 at Andys and the 2 ive been to look at 2 both of witch i sat in . I dont burn money in smoking and i dont drink so i feel any extra cash i have at the end of the week can go in fuel right i used to put it in my bike that did 20MPG thrashing about as its a tuned 2 stroke with big carbs ., i may not get the sames miles in but i will enjoy the trip every bit at much in a CVRT . Its just i had hoped to have one by now so i could get used to driving it get my test passed then get it to andys for a part strip and clean down over the winter for next year.
  15. Yes i have looked on the 2 links regular but im looking for a tank with a gun not an armored vehicle like the spartan they are cool but its not what i told my son i would get for the years we have left. sabre or simitar is what im looking at
  16. well good advice but that is what im doing . im looking at spending the max i have to get the best i can so save on hassle in the long run. i did offer the first bloke a price that would have left me after the sale of my b ike with some extra cash as well as a cushion . but he would not except / then when i used that cushion to spend again the max i had just for the perchance and agree to the price he was now asking that i agreed to . he change his mined and put it up £1500 so now the cushion was not enough again. There is no such thing as a cheep one no matter how long you look but you just have to look at what you can get for the money you have we are talking about a 20K vehicle hear at the end of the day.
  17. Well im starting to give up hope of getting CVRT . The first one i went to look at was rough as anything needing a l ot of work rough diesel sounding motor and back firing and very scabby But believe it or not just what im looking for as i want to put my own stamp on it any way . But my mistake really when asking what he would take for it not the asking price but what he actually wanted saying ok ill have to see if my friend who owes me money has all of it or some of it and id like to listen to a few more to see if the motor is as bad as it really sounds, This being the first 1 i have heard . So i go away see what money i actually have and get back to him with every penny i have that fell short of what he was asking by a grand or so , he was annoyed at me making an ofer less then what he told me he would take . But a couple of weeks later made a counter offer but i didn’t have the money so i had to advertise my bike and sell that , when it was sold i got back to him and said ok ill give you that , and then he got back to me saying well ive had a think and now i want £1500 more thats the price i said i wanted at my house and im sticking to it so now i don’t have my bike and no tank. My falt not making i t clear i was just looking for a price but if i don’t have the money i don’t have the money so that one fell apart . went to look at another while i was selling my bike and that had a sweet motor purred like a kitten sounded real smooth and in better condition but again was the same as the new price on the first one so just out of my price range would have been the better of 2 if i had the extra money ,but i dont so thats a no go ether . went to look at one of Andys again sounded sweet as a nut excellent motor but not for sale just went for a look and advice really but now i know what a good one should sound like . 3ed one looks like a sweet tank being restored by a member nice bloke and done a lot on it but again its right on what i have literally no money to even get it back to my house or finish the restoration . If it was local id go have a look but its along way away when i know i don’t have the extra cash to do anything with it. Its a scimitar not a saber and i prefer the look of the saber bins and machine gun don’t get me wrong id have ether but choice 1 is saber. There was a bloke i talked to who is asking about for me but not header from him in 2 weeks so its not looking good . Just dont seem to be a lot about right now. I can see this dragging on and winter will set in and ill just give up and wont ever get one . all the ones ive seen that i can afford are the abbots i put up a couple of links to them ive seen for sale but on advice and having talked to some people they are just to big heavy and dont turn on the spot like the cvrt's do and for a first tank the cvrt's are the best and
  18. Them first 2 vids are great sound in the 1st one is wicked . But the way that tank came round the corner in the second skidding sideways . who would have thought you could Drift a Tank
  19. wow that V12 Merlin motor looks ace . I was thinking of something for a CVRT though like the motor out of a modern Range rover a powerful diesel . I know nothing about sutch things and i know tanks have a funny gear box so most likely you cant put the 2 together just wondered if any one had done anything like this that's all . bearing in mined a family diesel Scoda estate car id more powerful then the old E type motor nowa days
  20. Having just seen the vid of the ferrit with a V8 in it i was wondering has any one fitted a far better engine in tank . removed the flat 6 E Type motor and fitted a V8 or a big landrover diesel something with a lot more power . or is it even possible with the gear box .
  21. He wasn't fined for doing 25 on a A road he was fined for being a dick and not pulling over to let people by and coursing a large qua on the road and coursing a tail back . Round hear if you get a few cars behind you a tractor pulls over and lets the cars behind by , this is what i would do if going from field to field or back the farm i used to work for .
  22. So long as it a nice looking lady doing it i have no problem with that , so long as she uses it to put here fella to shame
  23. No one hear Man enough for kilts then LOL
  24. Not any built up and ready to go ones he doesn't they need finishing and motors fitting . i was up a couple of weeks back
