Top work Dave.

Is that an LF55?
What will it carry?

Yeah 55 Matt, the body is really too heavy, 8300kg payload. 280HP engine, flies along!

and plated to 16000kg plus an air drawbar hitch to tow the low-loader trailer.

Yes, LGV2 Licence required Matt.

With the right body you'd get a 10ton payload.

Underbody tipping gear is heavy but we needed maximum bed length to carry excavators etc.

Happy days on the job, I netted three yesterday, all revisits to recently quoted work. The personal touch works.

no i like to see it dave :)
i like tarmac well laid
i cant think of 1 firm like yourselves anywhere near here
there are 2-3 big big civils firms (100 men plus) but beneath them its just pikeys and chancers
you go to the big lads and the prices are sky high
so very little tarmaccing goes on
