I've got a shed - if you sell it to me I'll be sure to keep it under cover :)

I went to look at a D4 ''bogmaster'' yesterday that has stood for years and is probably siezed. I'm not convinced I'm going to buy it yet as I live in hope of an older one with a donkey engine coming up in Classic Plant!

Nice try mate :lol:
There are a few Cat tractors for sale.Its just the cost of doing them up.I got lucky with the D4 as she has very good running gear.I know of some machines that are left to the elements with their owners reluctant to sell them.

Hmmm, South Wales eh. I might just have to pop over to have a look at it one of these days and see if I can persuade you to sell it :)

On the odd occasion I do a day's work in Bristol so driving back to Warrington via Wales isn't a massive de-tour.
