Ah. You see. I didn't know that. That's also my dream car. I'm gonna get a poster of one and hang it up in my Mancave. Ferrari. Pft!

JCB - "In 1945, Joseph Cyril Bamford launched the construction and agricultural manufacturing company that bears his initials. Over the years, the company’s pioneering spirit and reputation for superb build quality has led to huge success: we now lead the world in backhoe loaders and telescopic handlers, we manufacture a range of over 300 machines and we boast some of the finest engineering facilities across the globe."

 

Companies really like when there product name becomes the tag line for a piece of kit. Like Bobcat really like the fact that most skid steers are commonly called Bobcats. The Caterpillar guys don't relly like when you refer to there skid steer as a Bobcat.

 

Same goes for neck braces. Leatt have tried to close the market down by getting neck braces (in general) referred to at Leatt Braces

Three weeks' leave. Rain's softened the garden. Trucks being diverted with building rubble. Possible loan of a Bobcat. Let the building begin. :-)

 

In that case ...
