i am jealous, i want one!

Sounds like the 130 is about the best option to go for then to do with size. I still think there is something wrong with the fact I have to get a LGV licence to drive a loaded landy though!

[YoGi_93]

Hold on I think I got that wrong. Im looking at the landrover website and it says, for the heavy duty 110 high cap, the gross vehicle weight is 3500kg. Is that including the apparent maximum payload of 1516kg? So I could drive a fully loaded one of these on a B licence as long as I stick to the weights landrover stated?

That a work vehicle or a mix between work and private play thing?

[Matthew Arnold]

Bit of an odd question, but what is the max payload of a P REG (1996) 110 County Station Wagon. As got a log run to do for a friend.

You got it matt!!.... got it for towing stumper round, logs/trailer, towing splitter and doing quotes for work. And a toy for the weekend!!

 

Rob....that made me chuckle!! came in handy getting the chipper alongside that woodland edge job - although it looked like good firm ground, it was very wet and soft and the transit got scared on the wet grass!!

Ranger Matt, I believe all 110s have the same payload regardless of whether they're station wagon, hard top or normal pickup. The exception being HCPUs which are higher.

Land Rover Specifications

 

This page would indicate 1131kg as max payload (110 hard top), I'm assuming the box below that where it says pickup really means HCPU.

 

of course, I could be wrong!

Yes a 130 and big trailer is a formidable combo on the road though, i tow a 16ft ifor behind mine having done my trailer test a few weeks ago and even dispite having done a lot of ag work towing etc its a different game completely in the landy.

Good news for you Landie fans who aren't so keen on it's replacement:
