Hi all,
me and the wife are in the process of importing a U1300L 37 ex-German fire truck to the UK from Belgium. It's a 1981 DOKA extra-long cab (the kind with three side windows and 8 passenger seats), with the roller-shutter box back and big diamond plate side steps. Fast axles with the OM352 engine. It has a PTO pump and also front hydraulics... might come in handy!
We've both wanted to get a Unimog for a long time (Sue blames her long-time Mog love affair on being given one of the little Matchbox toy ones as a child).
We're going to be using it to help us move house sometime in the next six months, then onwards from there as we are looking to live and work in some fairly challenging countryside

Clever Hans (yes, we've named the truck already) will be entering the UK towards the end of April.
Once we've figured out how to post pics and where, we'll do that. Nice to be here!
Rob & Sue
