Which new truck??

[simonm]

What sort of issues have you had with yours?

 

Prop brake binding, tiny oil leak.

I highly rate our 6 ton Iveco (we have had one for 6 years).. Not so much the 3.5 ton ones (we have a crew cab and single cab).

 

 

Off topic so I apologise, but how do you rate the big timberwolf?

[Marc Lewis]

I have a 53 plate 3.5 ton iveco daily and love it. It tows well and has plenty of grunt. Not bad on fuel too. It sits a bit low with a low front spoiler so not great off road, but then its not designed for that. My only slight issue is that its quite heavy to drive, i.e. heavy clutch and through the gears. However the newer ones will be alot better.

I don't fit in a cabstar, the dealer is only 5 minutes from me so would have been good. Took 1 for a test drive before Christmas & was disappointed with the lack of power.

 

Which one? I bet it was the single wheel one. Thats got a smaller engine

Very highly, its a beast... We liked it so much when we saw another come up for sale used we bought that, so have 2 now...The low profile tires are stupid..

Mmm., thats a shame. Always found mine to be really powerful, and pulls 3.5 tonne no worries. Just suppose its what you are used to

if you want power test drive a 35C18 Iveco - I picked up an older chain driven 3 litre 35C14 and that pulls well, bet the 180hp version is a goer

 

only occasionally see the biggest hp Daily at 3.5 ton tipper come up second hand, this went for 4k, they do need to sort out the rust proofing though - mine needs welding and complete underseal after 10 years,

a brand new one near £30,000, seems sensible to spend a few grand restoring an older one

 

here's a brand new one of the boy racer truck, personally would prefer a single cab and bigger loadspace
