Afternoon all. Just bought a nice little ifor lt85 trailer brilliant little thing. Only a 2000kg gross. From what I can see they are the same everything, maybe slightly smaller brakes and different sized wheels from the lm version which is 2700kg. It has some poncy little 145 r10 tyres on. 3 of which are cracked between treads. Don't get me wrong I think this size of ture is probs OK but just checking with folk if they've run them? They any good? My mate said to swap them out with new rims and fit 195 r10 or up to the 13" wheels. Ideally I would have liked to put my safe track on this trailer if needed and if suspension same as the lm trailer the wheel upgrade would help me carry that weight (1800kg) Just seems like now is the time to decide. Any ideas folks?

Looks ace! I have some tree planting and deer cages to build around them in December. Taking the digger to dig holes but have to take tractor with farmers post knocker for the posts, would have been great just all 1 machine

I don't need one either tbh.... come April before tax return maybe 😆 I'm still using a 2012 201tcm daily and a 2016 One thing I was glad of with the 201 was it got shut of the 200t carb issues!

I did spot the hole thing like you but wondered if he ment Arsehole but abbreviated? Either way I didn't want to say anything 😀

That's shite then. I just thought they were made out of cheese and that put me off... I'm a stihl man tbh. I say a video recently.... can't remember if August hunicke or guilty of treeson..... but they were using a mk3 and it sounded absolute awesome! Thought to myself might have a punt at one of them! As always with these things, let some bugger else be the unfortunate ones first 😉 find the flaws

Christ almighty.... blast from the past. What a heavy pig that grinder was to push around 😆 Going to save that picture

Moist again today

I bet 😆 The lad put orange plant out of business in the end 😀 Only joking Stuart.... but just to let you know. It comes in 3's..... i hope you've had your third by now 😆 🤣

Shit isn't it. Heard a few folk say due to electric vehicle fires etc but not sure how much weight that argument has.... I questioned vehicle value.... master tipper at 16k I think and a ranger, over valued at 5500.... 10k difference in value. Same premium

Yup. Folk don't realise they have to listen to a machine. I have in the past and still do when putting leafy material in, knee the stop bar before the no stress kicks in then activate it again to only feed a little at a time so it can clear the chamber.

So what do folk do then.... just stomach it and deal with it when necessary? Kinda seems a shite trade off 🤔

I would think all knows vehicle insurance has gone up silly. Mines gone up over 500 quid for nowt. Anyhow one interesting thing I found out was that : you do not use or accrue ncb with a fleet policy. (Specifically talking ncb here. You would get some sort of no claim history with that company) Your ncb only lasts 2 years if you do not use it.... Before fleet policy I had 13 years on one vehicle and 10 years on another.... Catch 22 now if i don't get a policy that accepts ncb before mid November they are gone. Does anyone bother with ncb now ? Anyone just though about their circumstances now? As I've just made you aware? Kind of pissed to leave the ncb behind if I continue fleet policy.... 2 truck and 1 tractor, though tractor could be insured separately for me. if you try aviva insurance and try to put modified in, it come up we cannot insure you over the inter net or over the phone. This is purely due to the chip box which I'm sure would be classed as a modification? Anyhow just hope folk haven't sleep walked into loosing their ncb. Imagine if you finishnup business in the next few years and need to insure a car for yourself and back with no ncb

Exactly what I thought. Esp off a swinging hammer mulcher. Looks bang on. Most folk leave massive stringy bits all over. Obv gone deeper to blend into soil

Least your in the clear now though ey 😀

Excellent company is greenmech. One of the better companies I've dealt with. Shame I've gone on 9" plus road tow or would be running a gm road tow. I do run a gm safetrac at the moment too 👍

Yes I know the can't drop start. And yes probs should read the manual here 😆 had a couple of times it wouldn't start and would have head scratch but would then start lol 😆 wtf.... It's me and the lads though not the winch 😀

What's this Mick?

I saw the demo at the arb show of the eder 1200 and thought it was ace. Bought one straight away after that as had plenty of work lines up for it. Great purchase!

Nope. Not a clue. I run wired cameras with a display in the van. I also run one on the tractor loader... i got the one for the loader first best thing ever

Yeah I did consider buying both and sticking in a wagon body at the yard out of the weather.

All I ever use really is type c..... had some bloody fair heat this summer! I was considering getting some type a but lucky me it's September now and coming back to cold season 😀 I may well get some type a next year due to excessive heat as has been mentioned

I know of a little grey fergie petrol local I could buy or a little Fordson dexta. But I just can't bring myself to buy either at the moment. Don't feel interested currently

Your accountants would usually knock 10% off your motor expenses for private use.

Same here but been cracking the flags lately here. Weird for September
