Unimogs rock thread

[Le Sanglier]

I think the U900 is great for urban work. They arent actually that big. And also have a great turning circle. But then there are vehicles like the mitsibishi canter that have a bigger chip box. But then they are far less versatile. The main reason i got mine was due to the low insurance. I pay £3500 to insure my ford ranger, and only £650 for the mog. (well ok the main reason was because they are awesome!)

 

3500 to insure a Ranger, what are you? a serial killer? (in a pickup)

Hi,

I am new to the forum and seek advice. I have £10k to spend on a Mog and am very keen to find the right truck. I am based in Central Scotland but can have stuff shifted around the UK pretty easily. So far, I have only physically looked at one 406 far sale in my area. Mechanically, it is pretty spot on having had a new clutch, brakes etc. Low hours at 3000. Cab is pretty rotten though looks tidy enough from a distance. I would be prepared to remove the cab and repair it properly(I am a Land Rover mechanic to trade so am well versed at welding up scrap!). The chap is needing £8500 for it which I feel is too high??

My question is this. At £10k, can I buy a decent square cab model? I am looking for agri spec, short wheelbase with agri tyres. Not fussed about tipping rear body as will prob fit a flatbed. Any advice is welcome. Obviously, the higher the hp the better but I also like the smaller mogs as it will be in amongst the trees. Thanks in advance. Dave
