What have you replaced it with for work?
Didn't you spend a while racking it out?

I got the L200 for work. I only half finished the racking
Cost me £10k over 12 months, 26k miles so was just costing too much to run

We like tool boxes here.
Just been and nabbed these. Unfortunately the bottom 3 cases are partitioned for certain tools so they have a date with the multitool soon.
Can't buy em without the tools so no idea how he got em.
The top box was worth what I paid for the lot so not that bothered.
Will be put to use.

What LR did you have mate? I have considered getting a 90 or 110 commercial to use for work but also take the lad out for the occasional day out? For work it would be towing a 16ft Ifor and carrying tools. The odd time out with the boy would be on light green lanes and would have AT tyres, possibly a suspension lift and other little toys.
Thanks

Wouldn't swap it for a transit though. Merc or crafter I might

Looks like a PCL knock off, even copying blow guns these days.

That was a rather stupid thing to do, surely a man of your Calibre knows that such an item made of plastic will break if driven over

Loved it, but the miles I do and the kit I carry put a strain on the old girl

Had the older version and that was quite a good truck, spares were eye wateringly expensive though .

My Cherry picker is on a 05 Iveco and if ime honest the van has a very poor Finnish regarding quality of interior and exterior fittings..i like the fact its a bolt on body but hate the fact it has a "Made In Spain" plate under the bonnet. Seems a fab engine but not the best van ive owned
