  1. Hi Tony, I am not looking to fit these as a fuel saving device, just most to reduce some of the wear. Unlike some I drive my vehicles all year round and so would like to keep the 4wd option.
  2. Hello I'm looking for some free wheel hubs for a 44 Dodge WC 51 Any tips please gents
  3. Of course you are correct, but i am not aware of many places one could soak a dodge in fresh water. my point re the pressure washer is that there are many in France and it really depends how close the lance is held to the vehicle......common sense should be used.
  4. I still cannot understand why people do take their pride and joy on the beaches, bet they don't take them out in the winter when there is salt on the road.Advice buy or search "tide timetable" save a lot of tears.
  5. It is my understanding there are a few problems/delays with the mvt verification service at the office end. Also regardless of it being a voluntary post its only good manners to return calls, emails etc.That as I am informed is also not happening. Saying that when I required a verification the service, was very swift,so my personal thoughts are very good service, but this didn't appear to be the case 12 months later when I suggested a friend used their service.
  6. Told you !!!!!! hence my post.
  7. I may line of work, I also see " similar but not the same" products. These are normally cheaper too, but they are not the same and that why they are cheaper.....lol. 🤣🤣🤣
  8. Out of interest has the MVT organiser read the same paperwork ? if he has does he not understand what is written ? If i he knows something other than that for a fact, why is it not being made public to all members. In in fact they or he does know something are they keeping it to their selves so IF it goes belly up they can gloat and say "you should have travelled with the largest MV group in the world"
  9. Ron, its not only the countries, its the VEHICLES that are exempt due to age. The wording on page 11 para 3 is QUITE CLEAR vehicles over 50 years old and travelling to the mentioned countries DO NOT NEED an OGEL. That's what it says.
  10. As you only require 4/5 I take your point, regardless looking at them, I doubt they ever sold for pennies even to the Army. I suppose its one of those things, if you want it then one has to pay for it. I've had plenty of people tell me what they thought things were worth in the past, I'm not saying you are wrong but most people are wide of the mark with their estimation of costings......just my thoughts.
  11. Have I missed something here 29 Euro for 10 ? that's only 2.90 Euro each. That seems cheap enough considering what they are. Out of interest what do think they are worth ?
  12. John Wardle, secretary of MVT, said "One of the traders was selling Nazi memorabilia. There's nothing illegal about selling Nazi memorabilia. "There were no Nazis at the event - there were people dressed in German uniforms but they weren't Nazis." Maybe this was enough to upset the lady in question, I personally don't mind . But perhaps selling Nazi instead of German memorabilia should not be allowed. We are for ever being told "not ALL German soldiers were Nazi's" However I doubt this will go away.....lets see next year.
  13. I believe its quite clear there is already an exemption in place that covers our vehicles going to France next year. PAGE 11 PARA 3, its VERY CLEAR I think the MVT are asking people to get an OGEL because......well just because !!!! I have asked the MVT why they believe an OGEL is now needed and they cannot give a sensible answer as to why. Because we are coming out of the EU things may change of course BUT at this stage NO ONE knows how they will change. Should we all get an MOT, Insurance GREEN card enough petrol in case the French wont sell us any, I understand that the MVT have their own tour planned BUT IF THERE ARE NEW CONCRETE RULES THEN THEY SHOULD PASS THEM ON TO ALL PAID UP MEMBERS, not just the elite few.......
  14. I didnt mean you Tony I was refering to the museum.....
  15. As i said no one forces you to go. if you don't like it stay away,it will save you £1500 to spend elsewhere.
  16. I'm not sure that I agree about the booking and paying and not what you bring. I was under the impression it was a military vehicle sort of show, not a white van show ??
  17. I've never understood why people moan about the cost of getting to the show, no one is forced to attend, its your choice.
  18. This year I took my motorhome, as I have for the last ten years, I make no effort to cover up a large piece of white plastic, that to be honest make W&P much more enjoyable,Nice toilet Nice shower,Ice in the freezer for G&T and plenty of cold beers. However I park in which ever field I'm instructed to, this year it was America's. I would NEVER consider trying to hide it in say MONKTONS ,BUT THEN THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH SMALL HOME FROM HOME....is there. ?
  19. Where do you live to spend £1500 getting there.
  20. The venue is not a problem and to be honest it does not have to be in KENT. But I must agree the Racecourse was great for a lot of people. The problem is having an owner who cares what people think.......i will leave it at that.
  21. cant help thinking this whole show is going to end in tears,,,,,,,,
  22. Yes if its never been registered you will need a NOVA number, the DVLA will check this for sure.
  23. Yes I agree and understand,I was just pointing out that it was not how it read on an earlier post that MAY have been edited.
