    They've been around for many years. Dunno if they are good or bad.

    both my mates with their discos have got them and they are good, but mines a brown davis as I wasn't fussy about brand I just needed one cheap and thats what AMV had S/H.

    I love mine though 135ltrs but hangs very low and has a bit of a ding in it from a nasty rock.

    I have a 135 litre one in my Rangie, has a few dings and has supported the whole vehicle once or twice but hasn't leaked a drop. Ever. I would definately use them again.

    At work I have recommended and fitted a few, no fitting worries and a good strong well made tank.

    I had one on my rangie. After lifting the body, I had them enlarge the tank (the factory is not that far from me).

    I am satisfied with them and have one on order for my disco.

    Are they the Out of Town blokes? I seem to recall they were anti-LR.

    I've got a 120L LongRanger replacement tank in the 130 Defender. Well built.

    The only issue I have is that I can never use the last 8-10 litres in the tank because of the slope of the bottom. Once it starts aerating, the fuel pump makes funny noises and then it has trouble starting. Seems a shame to carry the fuel around but not be able to use it.

    I've got an idea to cut a small sump into the tank so that this doesn't happen (but I am too chicken to cut the tank and risk something going bang)........
