Hi all, just joined up after getting back into a Nissan

Currently running a Terrano Commercial (R20) - but most of my Nissan 'Expertise' is with the Patrols, which I sold a few years back after the collection was a little out of control.

I run a Motorhome Hire/Sales Company, and an Auto Electronics Company which keep me busy in Cornwall.

I also have a couple of Classics - one being a 72 Triumph Spitfire because it is the same as as me and the wife, and another a Landy S2....I have never been a landy man - but I was a recovery driver! This is a 1960 recovery with full history and a past that involved race track recovery - so bought it for that reason, and the fact the wife was in tears of laughter driving it!

At the moment, St Awful - but we are on the move soon! Either be around the same area, or looking at Dobwalls - seems quiet there now!

Depends what house I can find that has parking for erm...several vehicles!

Yeah, dualled straight past - nice and quiet now. Geographically it is quite well positioned being close to St Austell, Bodmin and Plymouth which are all 20 minutes or so. More of a trek for the west of Cornwall (i cover the whole county for the electronics)

Viewing one sunday - see how it goes from there.

No probs! Mainly the 160/260 series (mk/mq) which I have rebuilt many from the ground up. I MAY have plenty of spares too, for a while anyway as I will be having a weigh in when we move!
