.303fan Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Health became an issue for the last 2,5 years and therapists told me to give up my land-rovers. i am stubborn enough not to listen anymore as my docters wish to see me in a permanent wheelchair for my back. currently i am working on a 109s3 ex raf disability adapted and a 101fc ambulance to restore a camper to a working ambulance. i hope within this year i can move to the uk for work and have a life driving a concrete mixer truck, or better have a job at witham the ex mod yard. cheers, and hope to see a lot at this years war and peace, both vehicles are going.

stronghold Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Quite a collection of vehicles you have there to keep you motivated.Think in truth you cant get away from the person who you are. Wishing you very good luck and well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Child Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 That's a nice collection of vehicles Make sure you look after yourself though. You have to enjoy life (something the doctors sometimes forget), but at the same time don't take any silly risks and make sure you can keep enjoying the vehicles long term. Hope the job comes off! What is code95? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.303fan Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 Code 95 is the new EU thing, proffesional drivers need it from 2016. same as the health check, i came out perfect as i told my docter i can drive a 50 year old landy as daily driver i can drive that truck. he agreed and we talked land-rovers for half an hour as for the trucks, my girlfriend has two of that lot, a 101fc and the ex raf. i gave my dad the old s2a petrol and my first 101fc lhd, as the dutch council told me i can have two vehicles in the street. had to re arrange stuff, get a workshop and sold my sankey and ya126 trailer. and i forgot... i also have a sankey narrowtrack on my list i enjoy the vehicles and work as much as pain allows. to make things more easy on the war and peace, i will be walking round in my colin dale radio sutch or my radio caroline shirt/ sweater. first i need to prepair a lawsuit so i can work. cheers, Arjan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
