Hi all, I've be thinking of buying a used fastrac sub £20k. Will be used manly on road towing around 10 to 12ton. Doing about 40 miles once a week. Are fastrac suitable for so much road use? Any models to look out for our to avoid? Or any other advice?
Cheers

Fastrac was built with road use in mind. If ur wantin 1 at that budget ul probably be lookin at a 1135/2135 or mabe stretch to a 2155 but that would be about it

Been doing 100mile a day between these 2 the last few days. 1135 and 2140. 1135 is a bit heavy on the clutch and steering compared to the 2140.
