Just made contact with a guy who retails various bits of ex stock builders kit and plant. He's offering a 16" Belle Compactor (2007) for £250.00, and a Husqvarna 760 for £150.. again new ex stock. I've never used the Husqvarna range, anyone rate them. My Stihll has finally got fed up with the abuse we give it and died, it's going to cost £140.00 to put it right(new pot/piston and casing) so a new saw sounds a better deal but just wondered what the crack with the husqvarna??
By the way these are all well above board, ex Jewsons stock apparantley.

They make great chains saws and motor cross bikes,

The cut off saw is a good tool, as good as a stihl imho

Right'o, I'm seeing the guy Thursday/Friday, I'll Suss it out Haggi and pm you, once I've seen the goodies. That's the cost he quoted me mate, but I did ask for a water kit, which I forgot to ask a cost on, so I maybe looking a little higher, but the prices do sound good.

my brothers work used to run 10 k1250 saws but now use hilti, more to do with damage caused by the user than the saw.
