yep the 030-4 high spec version cannot be beaten in the 3 tonner class. S40 engcon on it and its a beast.
-
nah its same dealer who's been selling it all along. No change.
-
or use your private car to tow it. load of bollox rules.

Here you go Mick, her twin sister for double your pleasure.

totally something not femine or attractive about massive lanky birds.

if your driving a combined weight of less than 3500KG from essex to newcastle this leg is ok. If you then pick up a digger that puts you over weight your in trouble as its more than 62 miles from the vehicles base. In reality are you going to get pulled in this 4 miles...

i think age is secondary factor to hours and general condition on machinery. Some ex hire machines that are a year old look 10 years old after being abused to an inch of their grease nipples. They still stell for top money though.. Seems to me the market for under 3 tons is like the housing market and bungalows. People just pay more.

If your in 5 ton terratory maybe go bigger as you will need a low loader to move either. You get a lot more machine for your money and a 13 tonner is very very nice while still not being too massive.

im more than happy with the 3 tonner kubota, just had its first 100 hour service, she is a year old in september so we dont rack up the hours like tree guys or landscapers but its in mint condition and will stay like that until the tax has to be kept down and I'll move it on for readies (FU taxman) and start the process again. Im finding more and more now, with tight sites drainage ends up being a real pig. Shovelling trenches, barrowing etc etc. a micro just fits down a standard back garden gate (side of house) and can get it to site on the iveco without buggering about with a trailer. Once its on site (hired is cheap as cheaps)it gets used for all sorts, ive miced a whole jumbo bag of sharp and cement on 2 sheets of osb using it as we had no electric and the petrol mixer on another job. that would have been a ball ache by hand.

this. have a 3 tonner already, this would be useful to do what is normally shovel work. i can get the 3 tonner same places the 1.5 will go pretty much. 12+vat is not too shabby, this comes down to £9.6k after corp tax. Show me an ISA that can make you £2400 on £12k in the first year !
-
its armstead exacty the same just half the price of that site.
-
that is crazy expensive prices. £16.50+vat for 5L of armstead emulsion!!!!!! I pay that for 10L at jewsons.
-
So new tax year and time to invest the ISA into another digger as the returns are far better than any of the banks. Looking at a micro, has to be servo controls so seems its Kubota u10SL or the bobcat clone. Any operators of either offer advice ? What are they new 11k ?

save your money. Use 15mm plasterboard and 2 layers of 200mm rockwool in the loft laid opposing ways. Minimum for building regs/SAP calcs on our new builds. If you want to use the loft you can spray foam between the trusses, costs more, more mess, stinks etc etc

Free lancer vs PAYE at equivalent cost to business?
donnk replied to benedmonds's topic in Business Management
its called IR35 I mentioned it a couple posts ago. Doesn't matter if ltd co or sole trader same rules apply. If your 'client' sets your time and place of work 3 days out of 5 you will have a hard time saying your not an employee. -
thats why you need 6' min male coppers. The political correctness bollocks has resulted in this.
-
you want to keep it as is go buy it.

his land his trees. Can do what he likes. Too many commy scumbags wanting to tell other people what to do with their own stuff.
-
not knocking 1 offs at all. they are marmite builds for buyers and cost a lot more to do but can look great in the right setting. Worst ones are barn conversions with massive chunks of glass.. look shite as no proportion. You dont have to have small windows, short spans or small rooms with a normal build either. Not sure where you get that idea.

id be on the doorstep and see what issue is face to face. If no go then then id have the panels on the back of the truck and the posts chainsawed level. If its featheredge chainsaw the lot down. You could allways delay it for a week and spray both sides of the fence with 'NOT BEEN PAID FOR THIS FENCE' thern do the above.
