I have an invoice waiting to be paid for a vehicle 🙈
ah - right (y) - that's one less competitor then, :giggle:should I take a punt on the odd bid:rolleyes: ... certainly worth keeping a weather eye on the auction:unsure:

the rest of you lot .. what does the collective know about these ?
looks a tidy little thing - never driven an auto truck - plenty of auto cars and don't dislike an auto box
it's bound to climb 'fore the 7th, but by just how much is the thing - out of plate isn't gonna help it.

He won’t get it🤔
Her in doors won’t allow it😂😂

if it came for a little over the current bid, she'd know now't about it 'til it arrived

I miss mine and the facility it provided ... taxed private I could still carry all sorts of my own stuff and have very little of the crap that goes with running one commercially;)

Counterbalance trucks usually weigh double their lift capacity. My 1.2t weighs 2.4t and my 2.5t weighs 4.25t Good trailers though I agree.
Not sure on the weight of this one, but it towed nice enough. I'll have a look at the plate later.
It went up the ramp a treat, but getting it off I managed to drop a wheel into the washed out bit at the side of the road, had to tirfor it back up the ramp and try again... My own fault for rushing 😆

Couldn't find a weight on it, but Google would seem to agree with Stroppymonkey- 1750 lift, 3500kg in this case 😯 I'm sure I'd found something saying it was 2800 before I collected it! Disco didn't find it any worse than the 2.5 with buckets anyway 👍

Not an auction but this looks a much better way of loading than ramps
