Again...it is broken and I am on a dressage team this weekend.

Have tracked the problem down to the electrics and am waiting for Dr Pete Lorry Man to come on Thurs, but it is just one thing after another. Keep telling myself that maintaining it this well is a good thing.

Does anyone else have this problem with their truck breaking all the time?!
 
Mine has been at the agrage for over a month now!

It was very very ill.

Supposed to get it back today but it wasnt ready so are picking it up at 9am. supposed to have a comp, first test at 10-48, not sure if i can be bothered. too much hassle.

Do not talk to me about pigging bloody lorries. I was taking the colt off one Sunday and the clutch went. What a performance. I hate this lorry I replaced the old flakey Ford Transit flatbed with an LDV. The Ford was flakey but it never let me down, the old, old lorry, the Leyland Terrier never ever let me down and my God did I win everything with what ever I put on that lorry, and the the Ford. Since owning this pig I haven't won a thing and it is so untrustworthy.
The Terrier went for scrap a fortnight ago I cried more than when my parents died. I wish this thing would go for scrap I hate it.
 
I feel the same about my lorry. i have no faith in it and hate driving it.

Ok, so its only broken down once (touch wood) but i drive along just waiting for the next time. Am trying to convince parents to buy me a shiny new one!

So far have had a few minor problems with mine but nothing nice lorry man could not fix fairly quickly and cheaply.

I love my lorry and so does my horse

But when it has broken I felt awful that it was not there when I wanted it lol
 
My lorry is the best thing since sliced bread

Yes, it's in for it's MOT this week, but it's as sound as a pound when it's on the road. I can't wait to have it back for our stay away show at the end of this month

I know - bloomin things..... I bought one that I was told would be easy to downgrade from 10.5t to 7.5t - absolutely fab it was and got v. excited....... 8 weeks later it comes home from the garage still at 10.5t - not so easy was it ... uh I think they meant impossible! so now have a truly fab (but useless) 10.5t lorry with no HGV test in sight that I have to sell to start the search all over again .. GRRRRRR
 
I love my lorry, yes it's old, and the cabs a little rusty, but I've been all over the country in it and it doesn't let me down and it keeps going straight thru the MOT - although in the last couple of months I did have to buy it a new exhaust and battery - but I have owned it 8 years. Supposed to be selling it as we have a new one sat on the drive but I like it too much.

ETS - Happy Birthday Maloo!
