Unimog

[Dean Lofthouse]

What sort of money do you reckon these will fetch.

 

Would it be worth buying to take the back off and fit a tipper body

I reckon they will go for silly money.

 

Hate those versalift platforms, but I suppose someone would buy it if you took it off.

[Mr Ed]

Hate those silly U150 unimogs. And that company is expensive...

When I was look at Mogs I looked at the longer ones, I reckoned the backs on the short wheel base models were no bigger than my landrover back, no point having all that gross weight if you can't fit the weight on it.

 

Why are they crap, what's a better one. excuse me but I'm Mog ignorant

[Mr Ed]

Those mogs are a light duty version. Fitted with an old type sprinter engine, the would barely pull the skin off a rice pud.

 

You want a long wheelbase mog, ie any with the '50 designation.

Light duty axle versions would be 1250.

I had a 1750 with heavy axles, but then I always think bigger is better

but then I always think bigger is better

 

Already figured that one out Ed

[Mike Hill]

The truck is worth about £8K in Europe,high km plus there is not mention of how many hours on the engine clock (probably high).

Not sure what the lift adds to the value.

u150's dont have ptos or linkage so not agri spec...and im pretty sure they can not be fitted...might as well buy a landy and put a tipper on that

[Jamie]

bigger is better

 

....and thats why teh girls love me.

 

its obviously not due to my spelling anyhow.
