Well, that's a wrap from me!

I'd like to say a massive thank you to this incredible little town that took in an outsider and made me feel like I was part of the furniture. It's been a great journey and I've met some brilliant people along the way. Even being nominated for a local hero award! Blows my tiny mind! 🀯

We will be showing as temporarily closed on Google while the formalities go through but rest assured this will not take long. The deal is done, some truly brilliant people are soon to be taking the helm at Sleaford Recovery who share my passion for offering incredible service and genuinely helping people.

I jet off on Saturday to start my next chapter in the USA πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ all I can hope is that it's half as fun and half as rewarding as Sleaford Recovery has been for me.

All the very best to each and every one of you.

See you on the next one 😏.

Ben, signing off 🫑.

Another while you were asleep post!

If you're heading out on your morning commute, be careful on untreated roads, it's been a cold one! Ice patches everywhere.

As the owner of this Range Rover found out in the early hours. Great work by Ronnie!

I'm gonna miss this job!

Huge shout out to the guys at Saunby Motors Service & Repair Centre, after a full day of recoveries today, Frankies clutch failed to disengage showing all the signs of a failed slave cylinder.

Knowing how crucial it is to get it back on the road ASAP, Nick told me to drop it round and ordered me a clutch kit straight away. He quickly diagnosed that luckily the clutch was fine but it had rusted itself to the flywheel after some overzealous jet washing by numpty boy here...all released and back on the road in minutes.

Nothing better than an honest garage who won't carry out unnecessary work when I fully expected a clutch replacement was on the cards.

Cheers guys πŸ€œπŸΌπŸ€›πŸ½

SLEAFORD RECOVERY IS FOR SALE!

That's right, you heard it here first, this is the hardest post I've ever written, but I have made the heartbreaking decision to sell my beloved company. Built from nothing but grit and determination, Sleaford Recovery has grown to be a successful and lucrative business.

The sale includes:
'Ronnie' our ultra low mileage Atego, lowest mileage Atego by a long way in the whole of the UK c50k miles.

'Frankie' our show piece 6 wheel spec lift.

For the asking price i will also include 'Penny' my trusty Primastar that I've personally owned for 8 years.

Dealer level diagnostic tooling with full current licence renewed.

The entire social media presence (Not Youtube)

The website sleafordrecovery.com

The Google page including all reviews.

Last 3 years accounts available to serious enquirers (Not nosey parkers πŸ˜‚).

The unit is NOT included.

For all of the above I am asking for a mere Β£30k. Having had the business valued at more than double that figure, I believe this is the bargain of the decade with immediate returns on investment available. The business is still operating and is ready to work 24/7, until the date of sale I will still be there night or day for anyone in need on the road network.

If I get no interest I will sell all assets individually.

Reason for sale is that I have been offered an exciting opportunity that is too good to pass up, this will also enable me to continue the Fighting Torque YouTube journey with more exciting and varied content.

Now listen here pal, if the phone notification of your presence at my unit is going to wake me up, then you deserve to be judged on your handbraking skills πŸ˜‚.

It seems to me that you applied the handbrake a tad too early here, the lack of "flick" prior to the application of the handbrake means you didn't quite get the rotational effect you could have. Lost potential and therefore ever so slightly disappointing final result.

See video in comments for how it should have been done, assuming this was some highly skilled stunt driver 😊.

Overall I give you a 5/10, a solid effort that will no doubt improve over time! πŸ‘.

As the nation braces itself for the big freeze πŸ₯Ά.

Unfortunately I had to disappear down to Gloucestershire for a few days to care for my grandparents. They're now full of some of my amazing cooking πŸ˜‚ and on the road to getting over this crazy flu! Great news πŸ‘.

I made sure I was back in Lincs today as we brace ourselves for this crazy weather. If you don't need to travel tonight then don't, but if you do and anything goes wrong, I'm here.

The trucks are all fuelled, prepared and we are ready to assist in any way.

I've got your back πŸ’ͺ

Well, I nearly died today. I think I owe my life to an incredibly skilled HGV driver!

I was sat stationary at Swineshead Bridge trying to get onto the A17 after dropping this Boxer van off at Boston Peugeot. When a car driver had some sort of mental breakdown and decided to cross the carriageway infront of a Pilgrim Foodservice truck. The truck took avoiding action to miss the car but this put him directly on a collision course with me sat in the cab of Ronnie.

I make no exaggeration when I say, I genuinely thought my number was up when this truck was heading for me, but somehow he managed to squeeze past the nose of my stationary truck with less than inch to spare and plooms of tyre smoke.

We both cleared the junction and had a chat. I shook his hand as told him that I genuinely owe him my life.

Thanks mate, there's always a beer for you at the bar.

I hope this man's employers find out what an awesome driver they have on their books πŸ™Œ

Genuinely blown away 🧑

After a trip to Retford to recover a Sleaford resident I got back to find a tub of chocolates bad been left on Frankie, our orange recovery truck.

Written on it is "Ben, keep chasing the sunrise, good things to good people"

Genuinely made my day, so whoever you are, thank you so much πŸ₯²

I was filming today too so it'll be in the next video, hopefully out Sunday 😊

Have a great weekend all.
