  3. Fair point did'nt ask if his vans 3.5 my bad
  4. Just quizzed my mate about his merc and trailer combo he was fined and now has a digi tacho fitted and a restricted o licence. I found this just copied it If the towing vehicle has a permissible gross weight in excess of 3.5 tonnes the maximum width and length of the trailer are 2.55 metres and 12 metres respectively. If, however, the gross weight of the towing vehicle is 3.5 tonnes or less, then the maximum permissible width and length are 2.55 metres and 7 metres respectively. In both cases, the overall length of the towing vehicle and trailer must not exceed either 18m or 18.75m depending on the type of towing vehicle. I am not talking crap my friend is very honest has raced historic cars for years was also told if he was racing for prize money there could be other infringements
  5. Just a comment on the slogan thing i have seen outfits that will and have certain slogans etc to gain a advantage with potential clients a local band of goons have the jesus fish on there vehicle and cold calling flyers. Im with easy lift guy the murcins are very proud outspoken at times of allot of things its not a bad thing in my mind just not everyones cup of tea. Loved the videos just enforced the sterotype of all the gear no idea but do customers give a hoot its not the cowboys we have to worry about its the clients that have no education to know any better ???
  6. Ps i have just done my cpc and class 2 will be doing my class 1 in next couple of weeks.
  7. the m3 vosa checks are very common, my depot is near the vosa station that those guy run from and thay ARE regulary there thay will pick you up on either m3 a34 m27 and escourt you to there depot should thay find any issues there are a number of vehicles that are left abandond at the vosa compound. Regarding the the tacho it was my understanding that the transit is plate maxium train weight is 3.5t so is a combined vehicle and trailer plus contents and that the 750kg chipper deal was for post 97 licences also that combined length of vehicle and trailer can bring in the need for operates licence regardless of load ( I have a freind that has long wheel merc sprinter tows double axle car transporter got nicked). The whole cpc thing is coming yes its expensive but its not going to get cheaper there are huge numbers of companies that are waitting till the last minute to get theres so price for the course will bound to be hiked up.
