This is more affordable.. but I think is a 5 tonner so can't carry much..

Must be a mistake with the price surely!

 

Pointless having a crane on a vehicle that size.  Even a 7.5 tonner is questionable

The first is a 7 tonner.. and  I agree a bigger truck would be more useful.. But for domestic arb it is not unusual for there to be a few big lumps that some hydraulic lifting would save a whole lot of sawing..  and if like us you run multiple trucks you could load them or a trailer with it..

 

Our old 6.5 toner with tail lift has died, so I need a replacement...

Not a 5 tonner, a 3.5.. weights in at over 3 tons empty apparently...

This would be my dream truck.  Specially if it were 4wd

Lovely trucks, I’ve been lurking on eBay for the last few weeks... 4wd can only be gotten on 3.5 or 5.5 ton!

i wood've thought the 7 ton chassis wasn't much different to the 3.5 & 5.5 tonner so it's a shame they don't offer it in 4X4 guise.   If ya need or want to stay legal with a 4X4 variant then there is not much leeway with a 3.5 tonner. 

 

Great looking vehicles and good for domestic arb but i'd struggle with their size as it's toight enuf in the narrow Devon lanes with an old MK6 Transit double cab as it is! I'd be better off with a Cabstar or Grafter sometimes but i hate tiny cabs.

The engineering side of me thinks the axles limit the weight, not the chassis, but the cynic reckons Iveco don’t want the 7.5 ton 4wd daily competing with the 8 ton 4wd Eurocargo.

These look like a good way of getting a proper 4x4 van?http://www.rotodama.co.uk/cab-configs/
