These guys are starting to get expensive

That's an erm.....'interesting' back end to that Range Rover on page 1 :?

I reckon the buyer had better get a rea wash-wipe thrown in with the sale

[TimM]

I'm a bit confused now....

Your thread title says a wander round PADDOCKS...

Your pictures show an ANCHOR SUPPLIES sign...

Are they the same thing?  :oops:

[hobbit]

True, well spotted there I wondered how long it would take for somebody to see the deliberate mistake, thats what happens when you are working in multiple windows at the same time :oops:

[TimM]

You could have told me they were the same thing, I'd have believed you!

I've seen adverts (and talk) of Anchor before, but when I had a quick look at there website, I seem to remember talk of it being for the trade.

At that point I gave up looking any further, BUT - should I have, is it only open to the trade?

Kev, are you a 'registered member' or did you just turn up?

[hobbit]

Open to the public mate, just go and walk around, a lot of the stock is expensive, but still worth a look round, got one yard the one in the pics is on Steam Mill Lane, Ripley. The other is at the side of the cattle market in Nottingham.

Thanks Kev, will have a look round if I can find it

Its not a real Wolf. I saw it at Billing and its on an E plate and has had some wolf parts fitted...

[MuddyMachine]

Can see that now Fuel filler cap in the wrong place. It looks a good copy from the photo though. some one spent some money on it.

[hobbit]

Yep it was a replica, I think it was 2.5k off the top of my head, the other one was 5 i think

These vehicles are out at the Ripley depot not the Nottingham one

i bet no one can tell me what the what the man had in his hand about halfway along the photos can they? if they can let  me know and i'll tell you if your right or not there is two photos of this item one of the item closed and over of it open

I was interested in it, could be useful for anchoring down in a vehicle

But not sure at the time, althoug I'm due another run there to sort some kit for my lad as he's away to training in a couple of weeks

[john b]

kev,
   not much use to anyone anymore(obselete) unless you're a collector of old military kit, mind you if you find a use for them i'd be interested to know what you would use them for

It always handy having them on your doorstep, sometimes you can pick up some nice bits quite cheaply, and they can be converted or used another way  :lol:

[john b]

kev,
     yes i know mate i used to live in that neck of the woods myself,i have on occasion used both depot's -i used to live in hucknall and have used them since i came out of the army too, like you say very handy to get certain items from but as you know as well as i do they're getting that bit more expensive as time goes by

john

[hobbit]

Yes there prices are silly on some stuff even between depots, I can still get the odd bit from them cheap though.
