I'd honestly have another 05 plate in a heartbeat. The mileage that lorry did and the loads it carried would of killed anything else i'm sure.

Trouble is most that are still around are 5 tonners.. not ideal sadly.

Spied a couple Canters which are nice short wheel bases :)
I’ve still got an 05 Iveco tipper with the 3l engine - it’s an awesome tow vehicle, bags of torque. Mechanically very strong vehicles.

Good pictures there, Rory, especially the Dear John. Is it a bit nose heavy with a bare arse? The old 100b’s needed a good counterweight to sit flat without the backhoe on.

Yes it is... But running bare for a reason, can lift the arse end in sticky ground and self recover a lot easier :) also keeps the weight right for on the lorry! A project this year is to sort the scarifier out for the back :love:

T'd Off the blade with Q/R Couplings. Was going to fit a valve but tight on space. Blade down for Spool out, Blade up for Spool in :unsure: Works well enough, might fit a valve at a later date BUT the flows aren't great running on the littleun. So the winch will probably get bolted up on the 7 tonner (it's on a 3 bolt frame so easy enough!) for the majority of work as it's far too slow for timber extraction.

I'd of needed a f****ng Engcon Tent and Liferaft to keep the Tilttard Tears away from me if I'd brought this mornings discussion for £400 and stuck it on the Kommie!....
