A pic from today

So far she owes me Lorry 10k Fabricating £1,300 Paint 750£ I also had a door re sprayed for £100 One 6 weekly at £100 Tax £200 Insurance through trust £950 Drop plate for tow bar £40 I don't have a calculator handy to add it up. All plus the vat I must say that the 10 class (mines 11) is quite expensive in comparison to 7.5 and 18tonners but I really love mine it's all things to me I can back it it into a drive way easy Mines also a 170 brake, it's a bit underpowered and can smell a hill so go bigger if you can

Yer very have chip all over the cab and gearbox now, I stuck a bit of board there as a temp measure, I intended to make a chip curtain which I can lift and drop when I find a old curtain sider, Maybe a roof mesh too soon like we have in our trannie. Today...

Ay, kept the original cage on the front so I could see, I have to stand on a few chogs to see high enough and then it's constant game of looking up over and under to see, especially like today when we could only load from the back. I don't think the amber beacon on the back is going to last long. Was it a big job to get stand up controls? I'd like a remote conversion but then I'd also like to be able to eat for the rest of the year

Dunno, I toot at everyone who has tree on there van or with a chipper, all about sharing the love If you were near Northampton today probably
-
Cheers guys I'm really happy with it, I was apprehensive at first but had to take the leap. Been trying to get to grips with the grab, waiting for a good second hand one I think. The controls are taking a bit of getting use to, been a while since I used piano key controls, prefer the fluidity of digger style joy sticks. Big chipper is next buy, and a bigger digger,

From the front, can only post one pic on ipad

Where we was working had a weigh bridge, 4 and a bit legal transit loads in there with 1.6 tonne to spare, Unfortunately I spec'd the back doors wrong so the tiny wolf won't chip in there, time for a bandit
-

I did the rear and found it fairly easy Worst was that I could only get the seal from ford, ouch

I've always found the nationwide hire firms next to useless to deal with. Not saying fr is but the like of hss, speedy etc who you. Would partner with are always un helpful

Those of a unimog driving state of thinking might use this exemption vehicles used by agricultural, horticultural, forestry, farming or fishery businesses for carrying goods within 100km of where the business is based
-
I've never see anyone pulled in there though and our yard is about a mile from It They do sometimes hang around on slip roads, possibly napping
-
Is that a twin horn? Core That's what I want or might get a full rack

Those prices sounds like a agency fee Interim was 70£ or close to Paper advert was £150 or there about of course different local rags may charge different

There's been a few threads on this and I keep meaning to do a tot up
-
Keep up! there's a very thread running already with just all you need
-
I think there pretty good for payload as not a big lorry with little feet, Bloke near me has one and I'm sure claimed 4 tonne, but that was a long time ago and pub talk. To me Unladen weight should be a published figure and advertised, although I know this changes
-
It's only because there 3 houses down the road, It's just the application ball ache once the applications in my hand should be fine, It's partially my fault as I applied for 6 Arctics as have another venture up in. mind too Typical dealing with government office burocracy and inefficiently

Restricted, Strict times of leaving, no maintaine on site, no Sundays after 2, explain how many trips a day. Right pain, taking ages, lorry is being fabricated at moment
