Markheliops Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 (edited) Just realised why a lot of people steer away from tracked vehicles. Post War and Peace - As I am a law abiding chappie and I don't want to give the Police or residents the hump - It had to be done. I will be steering away from muddy puddles in future - I blame Vince when he took it for a spin. :whistle: Your absence has been noted Grasshopper. :-D Markheliops Edited April 1, 2009 by Marmite!!

sirhc Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Ok Mark, I could just do with getting it back and power washing it before the mud sets too hard! Unless of course you fancy washing it for me? Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an attractive garment. You end up as wet on the inside (stinky man sweat) as you do on the outside! We use them when we jet wash the underside of a 4 coach train. Now THAT takes some doing. 4 coaches underneath then 8 sides.... By the way i accept no responsibilty for any mud on your vehicle. I blame my missus for any mud on your seats though (i was wearing my best new carpet slippers :whistle:). Edited April 1, 2009 by Marmite!!

Markheliops Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 Cheers Mark. As I understand - Tootallmike and Vince will be selling some tracked armour soon. Maybe have a deal with Mike involving a pair of long trousers - Or Vince with a pair of shorts. :-D Markheliops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markheliops Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 Do you intend on using it on the road Mark?.Have you got a H on your license? I am one of the lucky ones with a tracked vehicle - Cat H- on my licence. Got it in the green machine. I will be taking it on the road - 1st one is Redhill 11th-12th August.

Grasshopper Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 You will be more than welcome at Redhill Mark, even if it is only for a day. Mike is the Military marshall, so come over an say hi to him or myself and we will funish you with tea/beer. Ou encampment will be easy enough to spot as the (mighty)Ward laFrance will be nearby. Its the one with the huge gazebo with the sofa, fire, coffee table and rug under it.There may not be as much vehicle movement as we would normally allow due to the ground being waterlogged at the moment, but this all depends on the weather during the next couple of weeks. Mike was at the site yesterday and reported that it seemed to e draining nicely after only one dry day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Burley Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Your making this sound very inviting.Might have to bring the 101 or jeep now if i can come down,as the Ferret is having the engine out.And i dont think i will have it back in time.

Markheliops Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hi all fellow FV432 owners. Can one of you chaps / chapetts kindly scribble a quick list of the POL's involved when servicing the 432. I have not received my servicing schedule yet and don't know what lubricants I should be using. I want to make sure all levels are ok for Redhill show. Many thanks Markheliops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
