Landrover 110/130 tipper

You miss my point.

If you took a full land rover pick up load of chip and put it onto the back of a transit, the transit would be well over weight.

 

So yes you can physically get more chip on a transit, but you will be massively overloaded.

 

So if you wish to operate within the law, a landy is just as capable as a transit and in some cases has a higher payload.

 

Yes i did, just worked it out (whilst driving the transit) :blushing:

Not sure I fully understand your assertion on the legality of carrying volume, but I got the tape measure out.

transit floor 2.1 x 3.1 = 6.5 x height of 1.2mtrs = 7.8 cubic mtrs

Land rover 130 1.8 X 2.8 = 5.04 x height of 1mtr = 5.04 cubic mtrs

 

Now you can probably claim that you can put your chip box higher on the 130 to make up the difference, however even at 1mtr the landy rocks like a boat on corners not least because of the 300mm inferiorty in axel width, and even with the helper springs is as often as not on the bump stops.

Plus the mud terrains are bulging dangerously under heavy load.

whereas the twin wheels on the transit have little problem.

 

Can you confirm if your 130 is a twin cab or not?

 

Cheers

Good evening all.

 

I am looking in the next month or so to purchase a landrover 110/130 tipper either with a chip box already fitted or I will have one made. Can anyone either give me advice on them or let me know if you may have one. Would prefer a single cab and a chip box with tool storage or failing that a double cab with no tool storage in the chip box.

 

I would hope find one around the 2004-2007 vintage with average miles.

 

Thank you in advance. :001_smile:

If you are doing work around the houses and not needing to go into fields or woods etc then get a transit, if however you are like going off road, woods, fields tracks up hills the the landrover is the best. I have a 130 crew cab with chip body, before that I had a 110 and before that a transit, I like the landy best.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1358505013.931140.jpg.c6988cb3c2cc473f97bf8abaec8c6283.jpg
