Had this old series 2 for years. Was handy for getting up onto the tops but mainly for shooting or daytime work. Paid £450 for it many years ago. Had a Ford Focus estate for years and it was a decent car for getting about the country with the dogs. Finally give in at 240 odd thousand miles.

Which pick up truck would be best to buy around three grand mark,iv heard certain ones are money pits?

Anything for that sort of money will be 20 plus yrs old..is a gamble,you might get lucky and find one that's been well looked after...or get something your chucking £1500 plus at next MOT...what ever you decide,check it's solid and had no repairs/welding on the rear chassis/cross member under tub/tail gate.. anything 15 plus years old,they rot like f**k,give it a good shake,hang on it...and make sure your spare wheel doesnt drop to the floor🙈.check water pump and turbo ,check there's no milkshake gunk on the oil cap😉....don't buy anything that's been used by or been  in the sea-towing boats etc....my mate made that mistake years ago with what looked like a mint L200 Trojan 🙄😁👍

Funny you should say that a spare dropped off on me nearly wrote me off 😆 

But a bit a gunk on the. Cap can be normal mate the real light colour brown on it can be an issue but not always

 Was out once,been andv dug a dodgy place on midnight manoeuvres 😎On the way home,I had the studs snap on me ,on the rear drivers side wheel on a dishatsu fourtrak...alloy wheel and chunky tyre came past me going down the hill and smashed through a set of big wooden gates,up the gravel driveway ... coming to a stop on the bonnet of a shiny new X5🙈,had the terriers in the back(bashed up after a face full).was flapping 🤣.ran up  the drive and grabbed the wheel,ran back down , wheel straight in the back,turned the front hubs on by hand...and was f***ing gone as fast as I could...up the road with 3 wheels pulling me ,got to the spar in the next village,grabbed a bread crate,under the hub,and got it to my mates garage 😁
