Lorry/Mog wanted

[fen01]

Hi All,

 

After putting a deposit down on a truck some months ago the deal has fallen through and having just been out bid at auction, I'm now pretty keen to get a lorry or mog.

 

My outline requirements are:

 

4x4

Tipper

Crane

 

It will be used for tree surgery in rural areas. I've got about 15k but could give more for the right truck. I would really need something I can put to work quickly.

 

Anyone know of anything?

 

Cheers

That's my perfect truck - it's s also the one I lost out on at auction!😈. It's a really tidy piece of kit and would be easy to put high sides on!

Nifty, I've Looked at that and not sure an old Bedford is up to it. I was initially after a Bedford TM but there just too old. Cheers

Sorry not sure how to post a link from mobile app but here's the item number looks a cracking bit of kit just needs a side tipper built for it.

This guy is worth a call. I bought a cherry picker off him , he has a yard full of ex leccy board 4x4 Ivecos and Mercs at sensible money. He is easy to deal with.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm now feed up of looking at trucks on the internet. As I'm under some time pressure due to the delay of months from my first truck and lack of trucks meeting my requirements and available cash, I've decided to go for a 2x4, I think the crane is more important than 4wd.

 

So what are people's opinion of A DAF LF 45-180? I'm pretty happy with the other trucks I'm looking at.

 

On be day I'll have exactly what I wasn't😀 but I'm watching the pennies at the moment...

the trucks mentioned above not within your stated price range ? they look like what you were on about getting initially, no ?

[fen01]

Yes there within my price but don't meet all the specs. TBH I've been focused on the kit rather than the task. Anyway I may have found something., I'll know on Monday then watch this space for photos. Cheers Mark
