Title: Prowlers who is selling them
Post by: Shaun_Ashmore on July 29, 2012, 05:46:31 pm
John isn't selling them I don't think may be Jamie is?

My mate is being made redundant on Friday and is joining our world of cleaning he fancies a prowler just wondering where he'll get service and parts?

Is it practical to remove a prowler from the van ... cant be a lightweight ?

Wonder if this would make a good alternative ?  mini TM + wastetank   insted or prowler with filters and APO.

£3600+ import =  ?   Prowler money ?

Hi John

The prowler is a very heavy piece of kit and it took 3 of us to get it up a ramp into my van, i suppose the only time i would really want to remove it would be to service it, but at least it can be removed unlike a larger fixed machine.

Plus us sales tax?

Not sure if that applies not sure if he wants to go down the route of importing depends on if he gets a decent 2nd hand one.

Jamie will be selling and maintaining them.

Only reason I no longer sell them is I don't have the time to do anymore servicing or repairs over and above the ones I have already sold.
I was going to go the whole hog and set up a truckmount servicing depot but with the downturn I don't think it would have been viable.
Jamie has agreed to take them on as he has engineers on his payroll. Doesn't matter he's a little further North as they can just be put on a pallet and sent up.
Still an excellent bit of kit.

Do you still use the Zeta & Jag setup? Or have you ditched them for the prowler?
