You might be better off buying a suitable vehicle and fitting a crane to it. There are some nice 4X4 tankers on autotrader that would do.

 

The vehicle you want will come up eventually, but how long do you want to wait?

 

yeah thats the plan if I dont find one in the next week, will buy a merc 4x4 fuel tanker or somethin and buy a used epsilon crane or similar.

its unbelivable the amount in France, Spain, Norway, Sweeden, etc, thats another option to get LHD although they are usually older, im putting a 7 tonne chipper on the back so has to be 18tonne, 6x6 are a pain mechanically, all military 4x4's are only up to 12 tonne, I have exhausted autotrader, ebay, military places etc, I think its time to build my own!!!

I struggling to source an 18 tonne 4x4 crane lorry with diff locks. Needs to have the crane behind the cab and looking for daf, merc or volvo but will consider others. Ideally between 02/52 and 06/56 and between £12k and £25k Crane ideally needs to be piped for grab etc and have about 7meters reach.

Dont want Bedford, Unimog blah blah. Will give am MS260 to who ever finds me one that suits.
