My ones not a commercial but would be very similar, I like comfy to drive not too clumsy. I know afew folk who have the new shape commercials and they like them but there's more space in the disco 4.
Like any Landover you have to be prepared for repair bills
i have a disco 4 commercial ,130000 trouble free miles

What the history on that one, Mark? Doesn’t look to have had a hard life.
Yeah it hasn’t done much 6,500 hours on it, belonged to a company down south spend its earlier life pushing some old cat 631c scrapers. You’ve probably seen photos and videos of it on Facebook before. Working on getting it site ready, replaced all the work lamps with some decent led lamps. Installing blue reverse warning strobes and have Trimble gcs900 machine control installed on it. She’s got a job to go at ripping rock in January will post some photos and videos of it working.

New defender commercial would be nice or a disco 4 commercial. But I'm skint now, so see what it brings!
5 weeks old now. U won't regret it and the price of vehicles is only going 1 direction.

Can be a pita at best to get a log book here ... has to have a European certificate of conformity and if it's not a factory build then will have to go through a single vehicle conformity job..
I have had so much hassle with trailers and vehicles over the years I don't know whether I would risk the pain again - certainly not for that.

Having sold the plot we developed last year and now purchased another house with a potential plot on the side, I am more likely to sell on the Kobelco and tilty rather than purchase any plant additions. Unless of course a tracked forklift happens to come available eat the right price!!

got a 14t broughan dump trailer coming and a disco5 enroute so I think that’s me spent up already…! I’d be in real bad books if I ordered anything else this year!
I’m just sorting our new offices out in the next few months too, got the shell up over the last few months, just wiring then plaster out to do - will be the first time we have had a office away from the house so will be nice to escape(the house that is!!)

Hope your office works out,your maybe in a bigger way than us and but we have an office at yard in corner of main shed, got it all done out tiled, heating, plastered, furniture, paint and kettle and weve not been in it yet to actually do anything other than a brew, we still sit at end of kitchen table at home among a heap of papers 🤷 🙄
