Hi
My name is Howard and I live near Nottingham. I have a 1984 G 280GE which I use to operate the Rushcliffe Barn Owl Project in South Notts. We're one of the most successfull Barn Owl Projects in the Country and my G is used off road when erecting and servicing 130 nesting boxes.
At the moment, I have a big problem in that I have snapped a front offside half shaft and the replacement is £600.
Can anybody help with suggestions of where to get a new or used replacement at reasonable cost?
