Hi all,
Spied these loggers fuelling up near work recently.very rare to see a uk fh with this spec.as the driver of the fh pulled away i thought she sounded like an I-shift?

Hiya,
Nice to see working motors without all that unnecessary bling, It looks great
on show motors but on stuff still earning a crust no way the majority of the
“additions” ie’ lights etc cannot be legally used because of how and where it’s
located, I once got stopped by an over zealous lawman for having a matched
pair of fog/spot lamps set too low and I didn’t fit them and had only been
fitted because the wagon, an old Albion, had just about lost it’s “vision” due
to the headlamp reflectors having become so tarnished it was like driving in
constant darkness, I only got away without a booking because I uncoupled a
wire at the switch so they wouldn’t work, of course refitting it about two lay
bys later.
thanks harry, long retired.

Hi Harry

Health and Safety wouldn’t allow that today, but most of us would consider it resourceful.
