Matbro up in smoke..

[tanker]

In a rather familiar fashion another TS 270 has gone up in flames,this one was a replacement for one that went up 12 years ago though this time I was sat in her when I saw the flames,didn't need Red Bull to give me wings to get the hell out of it when I realised.
I'm wondering where I could source another telehandler,I'm thinking a JCB with a pin&cone headstock but that's not definite.I know of a few places here in west Wales but if I wanted to cast my net wider would there be any recommendations?

Did you get the camera out @tanker or were you busy trying to find a hose pipe?

Thanks for the dealers to contact..
I was busy reversing towards the water trough when it became a better idea to evacuate the area pretty swiftly..

I had a TS 270 once.
One day I noticed as I was getting out of it to have some lunch it had caught fire.
It was old and knackered with lots of faults.
For some reason I put it out !

I have a Jcb Tm 310s for sale.
58 plate 6000hrs, pin and cone headstock, as new tyres. Good tidy machine, but I'm in Cornwall!!
It was checked over and services by Robert Cole our local Jcb dealer recently.
