New truck

Recommended Posts

Just signed for an Iveco 7.5t on a 4 year lease.

 

Far more tax efficient here than a bank loan.

 

We've gone for a diff-lock (careful with that, not to use it 'on road')

 

Faux leather seats, blue tooth and air-con because it's the 2 partners who are driving it principly and we like our little comforts.

 

The tipper body is made locally and has high alu sides that fold down to allow side loading.

 

Between the tipping body and the single cab is a large locker with a basket on top for hand tools/fuel etc.

 

We should be good for 3.6t (against the 700kg of the 3.5t we run)

 

3.6t = around 7-9m3 of chip

 

This should cut down the time spent tipping!

Sounds good, you'll wonder how you coped without it once it arrives.

Got this on its way from australia for a customer..plenty more available.

This one is with the 4.2 turbo engine only fitted in pick ups in oz.

You are looking between £26-30k + vat for a good truck..

 

Hi STAN great looking truck a mate had one years ago and said it was a great truck thanks Jon

Used mate

New ones are V8 diesels and dont meet european emissions and are twice that price!

 

This one is particularly clean, there are some very good used trucks in oz as theres not the same rust issues and so long as its not an ex mine ute we can source some pretty sweet trucks

 

Just add some vw software and it will be just fine:laugh1:

The old 4.2 turbo is not LEZ compliant either. Something else that needs to be considered because other city`s around the UK are going to be LEZ`s as well.
