I was on the cruddas park flats job this year working for mitie. They were happy for us to use stilts but when the wates h+s noticed us he nearly had a heat attack! He said they had been banned on site in the uk, the boss from mitie said that was balls, but if h+s said no that was it. We had...

Nice one good luck mate hope it works out for you.

I had had one from new, nothing but problems. The imobilizer kept turning on and leaving me stranded on jobs. The cpu had to be replaced so I was off road for over a week. The accelerator jammed twice while I was doing 70 mph! The handle on the back door failed and wouldnt lock, etc, etc, etc...

I'm thinking a couple of ounces, eh I mean litres :o
