Coincidentally I ordered a long tank from TAB classics before Christmas. I was quoted a 6 week lead time which is pretty reasonable and they wouldn't take payment until the tank is ready for dispatch. Hopefully at the end of this month I'll have a shiny new tank. I'll post a  report on quality and service when it arrives.

Some people on accessnorton have reported good results with their purchase of tanks from TAB.

I've been to his place and stayed overnight.
He's the quintessential grumpy old man with gnarled hands and beer bottle glasses, living in a partly renovated house in the backwoods, not a long way from Loch Ness.


Maybe he's moved but I would not want to walk from Loch Ness to Dumfries........... .................I suppose if you're Aussie then you see scale differently to our miserably small little island

There's a lot of common sense in what you say Jock, but there's nought that's miserable about some of the homesteads on the far side of Nessie's Pond..

I had The Tank Shop made this for me several years back. Took about 12 weeks. Was under a grand and significantly less than a few of the other fab guys that were around at the same time and in this post FWIW.  John was a bit eclectic to say the least.
