Which tipping truck...???

[WillTimberlake]

Hi all,

 

Right, so I've got an insurance quote... which I think is quite reasonable... I would now like your opinions on which tipping truck to go for.

 

To start off with it will be used for green waste, and woodchip now and again (until I can afford to purchase my own). And of course logs. It will have greedyboards/high sides on it too.

 

I have been looking at the older shape Transits, 03 ish. (I've seen). I've seen some Nissan Cabstars, but not that keen on them. Would like a Canter but there probably too big for what I need at the mo. LDV, Iveco? What would you all recommend?

 

Thanks in advance and look forward to reading your comments.

 

Please feel free to upload pictures of yours.

Transit in decent nick for sensible money is as good a vehicle as any to start off with, cheap to buy, repair, get parts for.

I had an 03 plate LDV Tipper with the Transit running gear, although not the nicest thing to drive it was a dam good work horse and only cost £1500 with full years MOT

Picked this Iveco up for just under £2000 with 12 months mot and 86k on it but selling it on whilst I'm still subbying. Would consider them in the future though.
