If I were to tell you that I may be selling one (a Land Rover that is), would you be interested?

Fully kitted out with our system.

It would be a 2003ish td5 110 and would look similar to:

That one is an ex scottish power so is a Land Rover Special Vehicle. It has the double chassis.

I have been thinking about taking our systems (7 years of development) to the market for a while now.

Thanks Paul

Depends how big a tank you wanted. You could get a 500l in but I would think you are going to be restricted when carrying poles.

Better with a 110.

If you were interested I would need to source the actual vehicle and kit it out. I don't actually have one for sale. Yet.

its a good idea for you to do but im a landy nut and sourcing the 110 will be cheaper for me to do and kitting one out is a doddle , was just interested in what you were offering.

No worries. Glad you have decided to get a proper vehicle again.  ;)

We have fitted out over a dozen Land Rovers with WFP so if you have any questions don't hesitate.

Tom , yes you did!!! I already have one landrover , but it's a
Rare camel trophy team car , and last year I had three different
Defenders sat on my drive so I thought I'd try and grow up
And buy a van , but the first dispatch was 2009 car and it fell to
Pieces !! The transit how ever is fit for purpose and a great van
BUT it's not a landy and you pushed the must have button!!!!!
So I'm looking at one on Sunday and ifs a good one ill buy it
And put it to work window cleaning :-)
Just need to sell the transit now , guess someone will get a bargin;-)

The T300 has a higher payload, I had the 2003 mwb fwd and the payload was 1250-odd kg

I remember the older shape 2000-06 shape T260 and T280's having much lower payloads, less than 900kg for the 260 and slightly more for the 280.
