I Have just bought a Recovery truck Today and to get it insured for what i want to do the insurance is Ni on £3000 i want to do collections of new cars plus breakdown cover i ideally wanted to keep my L200 For what i bought it for Shooting and to Advertise my new business venture on but it just won't be feasible with the cost of insuring the recovery truck the private plate stays on the truck its MOTd till April 2015 runs starts and drives spot on i have just had the timing belts and the pulleys and fan belts plus some other odds n ends done there is the odd dink and there is a split in the end cap on the front bumper avable on ebay for £30 odd quid tax has just ran out but i can tax if Req?? As its still insured

1st £1400 Drives Away here is a few pics 4 excellent tires the spare needs changing http://s1340.photobucket.com/user/Splits.../?sort=3&page=1

Hope the link works also had a 2nd hand turbo put on a few weeks ago i think its done 173 thousand i will cheq call Nick 0758 247 247 9 before 10pm if poss please

its chequered out in the tub and since the photos i have added a tonneau cover black with press studs Gutted to be selling

If you had put that up a few weeks ago i would have had it

Cant you get a Motor Traders Policy to insure your Recovery truck?
I had one for 12 yrs, never had any probs. 3 of us were on it and it only cost us £1700 a year.

That's not a bad price. Pre FBW classic in good order are starting to outstrip the less reliable 2002-2006 models of late. Hope it sells well for you.

If only my 'truck pot' was a little bigger.

I'm going to tax it tomorrow for 6 months
It's crying shame to see it on the drive its only been stood 4 days lol
So the tax will be oppictionl £75
I will leave the full 6 months on @ this time so £1475 taxed
Although the tax is £120 odd

That looks a nice motor, Nick. Good luck with the sale!
