Visited the Reomie yard today

Recommended Posts

Today I went to Reomie to get some much needed locking hubs to save something on the fuel bill. The yard they have is absolutely huge and totally stuffed with Reo's so Mark, this might hurt....

Thanks for sharing those pics :-),

 

Those poor MUTTs! & what on earth has happened to that twisted one? :-(

 

There's some rare stuff in there - the Diamond T 969, the Kenworth XM818 (?).

 

Each time I go to Reomie's it makes me want a mulitfuel 5-tonner. One day...

It is, relatively speaking... It's in Nijmegen, on the German border. If you get a 24hr pass on Eurotunnel, and get on the 1st train after midnight, you can be at their gate for 08.00, have time to look round and bankrupt yourself, leave by midday, go to Chris Muys south of Brussels & Lys Tout Terrain, hypermarket & jerry cans of fuel in Calais and back on the Chunnel and be home by 20:00 for tea and tiffin. And that's in a 2.5 n/a diesel landy :shake:

 

Essex boys could price up Harwich - Hook of Holland 'cos you'd save loads of driving time.

 

You won't regret the visit but you will come back with a longer 'wants' list :tup:

Can't risk taking John or Lee on a trip like that as we would proberly come back with something big and armoured :whistle:

Might have to plan a visit one year.

Now that's the kind of breakers yard i could do with near me...

 

on second thoughts I'd probably want everything in there

 

so it's probably best if there's nothing even remotely like that, near me :-D

 

Nice pics BTW, cheers for sharing ;-)
