That is a vast amount to spend on a truck that's not really for for purpose. The lorry you could have built for that or even with change would have been amazing!

It is but at the moment we don't need a wagon, this suits us well as things stand, maybe if the arb side expands it would be worth while.

My old transit that cost me £5.500 did almost 300 grands worth of work before I retired it. They aren't perfect for tree work but they do the job.

Not a lot you can't do with a wagon better than you can a class 7, even the little isuzu 7.5t with same footprint (more or less ) as that would have huge benefits for legal payload and last longer. Still a nice shiny truck though...
