As many of you will know I collect Tarpen equipment and now have a reasonably sized collection, shown here is the display we put on at the Ardingly Vintage Vehicle Show last year...
To be fair to the old blue oval I have had three Focus, a 1.6 hatch which was a bit of a dog, a 2 litre hatch which was superb, only bettered by the 2 litre estate I had for 8 years before trading it in last year for the Duster..
My dad was in the Ford world in the motor trade for many years so I think some of his influence rubbed off, until now I have only ever owned Ford or Vauxhall cars and they never let me down, luck of the draw I suppose...
Thanks Karl, yes you might say the 6x6 got a bit of attention over the weekend.. I even had a chap who used to work for Toro ask me what the chassis number was
You should have said the chassis number was STIG001 that would have baffled him !!
Love that Merry Truck, our mate from Wiltshire has got one of those amongst other Merry Tiller machines, I am going to challenge him to a slow race with my Multigardner truck one day !!
Series 3 Land Rover, definite Friday afternoon model, cost me a fortune and was known as either "the Money Pit" or just "Bitch" depending on my mood !!!
