Innovation is the difference between being a leader and a follower!

One thing I would pay money for is a split brake pedal to keep the nose uphill and reduce scrub, but its getting to the point you can't even say it let alone do it

If TFF is indicative of what it's like in the UK then a lot of things stay as dreams, hey?
Not at all.. look at the “why did they stop making them” thread..!!

I’ve said to him to have a good look around, not just look through a windscreen.

To look at the way the country works, speak to the people, ask about the business and get the good and the bad.

If he stays, I don’t think I’ll survive, because Mrs COP will be proper miffed.
Can't my son to go, he's 31 now. Sometimes tempted to go myself, especially at this time of year when it's cold, wet, dark and horrible.
 
JCB in the UK will barely entertain the idea of fitting a non standard air freshener I the cab, let alone do something like that.

Everybody I ever asked from the company, no mater what it was, would come back with words akin to “No, you can’t do that.”

Could you not buy 1 outwith warranty and not have to worry what JCB think?
 
Yes, I suppose I could, but it’s not something I could build myself. I don’t have that level of knowledge or skills.

If I didn’t have to travel half way around the world to look at one I might be a bit more inclined to have a crack at it though.

I like a challenge and having something different, but taking an angle grinder and gas torch to a nearly new machine might keep me awake at night!

I like the look of your Zetros. Can't see any reason to change to something completely different. 🤷‍♂️
