BM59 User Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Hi, I am joining the group in anticipation of acquiring a vehicle and to get advice from those owners with experience (so as to not re-invent the wheel)! Cheers, Vic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon_M Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Lots of people in your area with vehicles Vic, maybe visit some locally? I'd suggest the MVT, the NEMVC, and Denny Thomson in Rothbury area initially. Lots of good individual vehicle advice on here, all I would suggest is not to be too ambitious, and preferably to get something as complete as possible.

Gordon_M Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 If you get a Weapons Carrier, you need a late 12 volt one. Of course, if you can afford a Carryall you won't have to worry about the Northumberland weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, if you can afford a Carryall you won't have to worry about the Northumberland weather. Nothing wrong with the 6 volt if they are properly loked after! The Ambulance WC54 does have a roof and a heater, and wind down windows! :shocked: Now if I can just sort the *** vacum wipers out. :-D On the other hand the WC51 wepaons carrier does have through draught ventilation, and is great, in summer.

Big ray Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 This is what you want, they are bullet proof and a lot of fun to drive, bigger than a Jeep and less trouble than a truck to garage.......... I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korporal Pawlica Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Lots of people in your area with vehicles Vic, maybe visit some locally? I'd suggest the MVT, the NEMVC, and Denny Thomson in Rothbury area initially. Lots of good individual vehicle advice on here, all I would suggest is not to be too ambitious, and preferably to get something as complete as possible. Hi Vic and welcome from another new guy in Northumberland - drop me a PM if you wish as I've got contacts with a fair number of folk in the MV scene in Northumberland. Happy to help out if I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
