Is this it?

[dangerous brian]

yes ROSS it also has a best before date on it,its not been tested on animals it has a red tractor on it and bodyshop are going to stock them so im assuming its safe to use.

Am I wrong in thinking that looks similar to the model Nod was selling at the AA show?

If its tested to 5 ton & has a safe max load of 3 tons(3000kg) i would say the safe working load is more like 600Kg.

& any kit should carry the CE mark.
