Sent this to my mate who’s yard is like a tractor dealers yard few million quid of kit for a 1 man band, but got me thinking how does a trailer like this pay its way! Hooked to a 200k fastrac etc as well when a 16k 8 wheeler do the same for less fuel .
They have some other nice kit....£££ heard some interesting rumours about that lot🤐

Cheffins auction this Saturday looks to be good, One for JD450 although this one is only a JD350 looks like the track adjuster could do with some grease too !! There are some nice pieces of kit up for auction.

Would love a week on a decent one. Could have done with one rather than the Wheel Digger on the shed base, but pretty sure none about on self drive.

On a different note - this one just popped up local. With thumb and set of buckets on steel tracks with a trailer... Would sell at that price I would think.

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
Gavells whom i often put links up to, reasonably local to me, must have some one new writing their catalogue entries
was looking at this earlier and thought -- hello .... that's mis-representation !!! bigtime!!
sent 'em an email referencing the error .. no response as yet :rolleyes:
huge difference on the value of that - especially as that is a mild steel capacity and this mob've been using it on stainless which'd've put it down to circa 2.5mm in 308 S/S
probably worth 30% of what a 10mm would make :oops:

also seeing more errors elsewhere in some of their descriptions -- the FLT is a 2 tonner not 1250kg, as stated, with a 4500mm lift not 1400mm as stated :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: the fork spreader will reduce the usable cap, but the FLT is still a 2 tonner .. hasn't had a 6 monthly since Aug '20 either :rolleyes: with two advisories, one safety critical :whistle::whistle:
the racking system lot 11 is some fancy racking set up ... would've loved tha for my sheet stocks
lots 18b & c will be worth keeping an eye on ;) hi-cubes too
@Quattromike might want to keep an eye on all the stainless stock

usual story too ..... multi thousands spent in the offices - shop floor gets to 'make do' :rolleyes:, even though they're responsible for making 'the wealth' :(

I know, pool tables and dish washers. Are they really trying to auction off a pallet with three siding boards 😳 the amount of them I've chucked in the skip I could of been a multi pound-inaire
