Army vehicle disposal

I think bushy was referring to cousins buying up a lot of the first auctions offerings hoping to turn a quick buck thinking they were onto a hot thing....

funnily enough, that seems to have been the modus operandi for both cousins and east coast commercials, in that they tend to out-bid everyone at any cost at the auctions, then jack up the prices knowing they have the monopoly on a certain type of equipment...

more than a little satisfying to some that those tactics have finally bitten them on the backside, i'm sure....

Didn't anyone tell them about the other 3800+ trucks? Oh well.

:D:D:D

You may even beat them down in price or at least get them to replace all the batteries in it.

You'll just have to Wait Awhile....

Well looks like when I get one of these I'm going to have a nice long drive home to get acquainted. But that won't be until mid next year. The minister of finance thinks buying a house has a priority at the moment ;)

I had a look at them yesterday. some were missing the crucial log books, one Soft Top Cargo 4x4 needed major repairs to diffs and drive shafts ect..

Had a "do not start" sign in the look book

nearly all of them have very average paint..all are dull and nothing to write home about..

How ever all of the interiors looked great and clean and shiny,

How do people make the softop look new again?:confused: most look very faded and light in colour..

Bulk quantities of Armorall have been sprayed on the interiors by AFM - makes the seats very slippery :)

The only real way of smartening up a worn out soft top is to buy a new one :)

But there is the odd good replacement already fitted to some vehicles.
