New lorry, new landrover and the tank!

At least my mog has never fallen over

may be swb but the lads getting his new specs come monday:001_tongue:

[Mr Ed]

Well if were comparing...

My FL10 Volvo has the same tractive power as a mog and trailer (8x4, except my traction is under the weight where its needed), carries an 18 tonne metre crane, has a payload of 18 tonnes, returns 10 mpg, has 340hp and costs next to nothing in repairs and running. It costs £550 a year to insure and £600 a year to tax.

I've owned unimogs, and consider them to be vastly over-rated and overpriced. They do have their uses and place, but at a very steep cost.

If you want to pay the cost, fine, but for the cost of a decent mog, I have a 32t truck and crane, a 7.5t truck, a 12" chipper and a couple of pickups.

Stevie, if your convinced mogs are so wonderfull, why do you try to palm yours off at every opportunity?

When I'm rich and Famous I will buy 2 Mogs.

one for chips and one for logs.

And when I spy a poxy Land Rover

I'll speed right up and run the F***er Over.

That all sounds amazing, and actually opened my eyes, but just one thing i,m curious of is, How do you get it parked in a small Cul-de-sac???

I wonder what the depreciation is like on a MEWP??

 

If I sold my mog tomorrow I would get back what I paid for it 6 years ago
