    Parts mark Up?

    Heard a fairly extortionate figure for a turbo just under double what an independent supplier could do it for and fairly sure they got a turn ! When sales go down prices go up to keep the same turnover ! :banghead:

    Orchard Sprayer

    Would have thought £5000 would buy a new Continental sprayer Comet pump and ARAG spray gear . Have a used 1000 ltr Continental one in the shed but its a back up if anything happens the 2000 ltr one i usually use. Yarmet do them if you wanted a cheap new one versus a second hand one.
