FridgeFreezer Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 I drive past them fairly regularly (M275 into Portsmouth), two foooookin massive landing craft, you don't really realise until you see a car, or even a JCB, parked next to it just how damn huge they are. I so want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 90 JON Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 If i'm not misstaken thast just outside portsmouth last time i enquired they were 150k each! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasticbadger Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 As said above ^^^ two massive landing craft just outside Portsmouth, on Harry Pounds' old scrap yard site, which still operates the other side of the motorway. How long ago did you get that price Jon, because with the price of scrap the're probably cheaper now Seriously though, if you look at the graffiti on the side then it would make the tyres about 10 to 15 feet high!

FridgeFreezer Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 how long to slab from portsmouth???? I think you mean "How many tonnes of diesel to Slab from Portsmouth" they are damn cool though, if I won the lottery I think I'd have one as a holiday yacht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
