  1. 5% buyers premium. Even so, a lot of motor for the money. Hate to think what we paid for these originally.
  2. to give you an example, the engcon tilt and hitch is 140kg on our new 2.9 ton kubota. It replaces the factory hitch and pins in that weight.
  3. i see an issue using that to load from the heap!
  4. they will do it for you. IT will be the county council and for us in worcestershire they dont charge.
  5. get the wheelbarrow out you lazy git !!!!
  6. nope its N1. The fact that the V5 is wrong isnt your problem, as long as you comply with it. Definitely a loophole but if you wanted the ability to carry 10 ton of chip and stay legal on a car licence this is a mighty attractive solution I would say!
  7. it doesnt have one as it yank. Here is what it has.
  8. thats why its far far better than C1E, as long as your an old git!
  9. from https://www.gov.uk/driving-licence-categories
  10. no. No limit on trailer weight with B+E thats what makes it unique!
  11. So there is a yankee pickup on the bay, with V5 etc. It's plated as 3500kg and has a train weight on the V5 of 11 tons! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-F250-7-3-Powerstroke-4X4-Auto/282804180870?hash=item41d8715786:g:W6YAAOSwnodakWwD so car licence B+E, assume a ton of trailer and you can legally tow 10 tons without any of thet C1 nonsense! here is the V5
  12. good supplier of proper treated posts and telegraph poles http://www.fenceandforget.co.uk/
  13. no 3.5 tonner. And before any keyboard warriors start moaning Im not interested in your payload comments.
  14. haha. no leather! Cruise control is bloody handy though, stops the speeding tickets!
  15. cheers bob, I did look at them but it meant the air con compressor had to go.
  16. the only negative is there isnt a PTO option yet for the ZF autobox. So have to run 2x12v pumps, 1 for tipper and 1 for hiab.
  17. have to say my 2016 daily tipper has been great. I did fit airbags to the rear axle to level her up when 4 ton was on the back. the 3 litre engine with 8 speed ZF box is brilliant.
  18. So what do people use as a rule for featheredge. knocker, pecker or auger for posts ? pecking or knocking would be quicker and cheaper as no postcrete. do they come loose ? Personally we allways auger (with digger) but often wondered if we just peckered the post in 3 feet it wouldnt come loose ?
  19. it does on my disco4.
  20. freelancer / subbie
  21. This sort of weather tends to sort out the weak batteries, thought id mention a good charger ive used for a good few years. Ctek 3600 (replaced by MX7) can do 12 and 6v more importantly can charge at 7 amps. If your like me and dont like faffing around under the bonnet, I knocked up a charger plug to go into the trailer electrics socket so can charge and leave everything locked up tight.
  22. if your off up the moor, dont call in the Slaughtered Lamb for a pint on the way back......
  23. what this chap said. I wish id bought a 3 tonner 5 years ago, it would have easily outperformed my ISA .....
  24. this is the same edwina shagger who refused a free vote on Maastrict treaty that all other EU countries got a vote on. They even made the paddies vote twice as they got it wrong first time.
  25. It comes down to you advocating killing another human. It's another sign of mental illness the left suffer from. JRB says your wrong. I'm with him.
