Thanks John.

Love the number plate!!!!!

I'll heed your advice. No need to ask what you were going to do about your older truck then!

thanks Clive, i bought the plate in 05 from dvla but never had anything new enough to put it on till now.i sold my old 144 got 10 grand for
it ,but they are great trucks the old 144`s would have kept it only for the lez i see your volvo on ebay looks real nice i used to have a
1994 f12 405hp midlift when i bought my first truck.

The volvo was sold yesterday.....................git pulled out by text today! back up for sale again now.......get your cash out

Thanks for reassuring me about the 144. I'm looking forward to putting her on the road. That LEZ is a ba**ard. If I have to I'll try and put a CAT on the old girl. It'll be cheaper than one like yours! (envy)

I'll see how we get on and maybe I'll invest some more if it goes alright.

You've had some nice wagons over the years John. Where in N/W London do you hail from? Have you just got the one R580 now? I'm keen to learn from the master!

hi Clive ,i am just a owner driver now used to run 2 but work dried up so just drive myself now.we are around wembley / harrow area .most of our work is london and the home counties.it`s hard now with the price of diesel .i dont know about the master been driving low loaders since i was 23 so been doing it 20 years now. it`s a young mans game

[bigkit]

You must know whats his name..............Coyne from over there, he's moved me a couple of times, last was about 4 years ago. We are much the same, I'm 43 and my first low loader of any size was a 142 at 23, the owner moaned it cost as much to insure me as it cost in diesel! Still I loved it.....even driving around London 'cos they had a 2nd yard in South Norwood. It'd be a job to get a 23 year old on one now.

I used to do a lot up around your part for Ealing Borough Council and Kensington and Chelsea but I got fed up with the travelling over the past few years! Must be getting lazy!!

I must say its hard to make such a large financial commitment to trucks when you weigh up the return, they're so expensive now especially if you need a euro 4+ for the LEZ.
