[Dman2]

Whats the point, adding another axle is just reducing payload
That goes for tri axles as well

Surely you wouldn't bother bringing the second trailer in that case?

Seems I was wrong, seen a video on Facebook of it a couple of days ago somewhere in south of England & he had loaded a wooden crate on the back of trailer.

Thought I’d bring my old HZJ75 home from the farm & get it registered again. It has sat for 3 years.

Very rare for me to be envious, but I am now!

Very rare for me to be envious, but I am now!

my 15 year old son wants to use it to do his driving test in ( he wants to do it in a manual & he reckons a diesel 75 is about the easiest manual there is to drive ), so that was the impetus to get it registered again.
Once he gets his licence, I might give him my Hilux ( safer vehicle, with ABS & airbags & also cheaper on fuel ) to drive & I’ll go back to the 75 series

This rig leaving our yard - off through the streets of North London F*** that !

 

[Cab-over Pete]

I had to drive an artic in central London on two occasions, both over 25 years ago.

I made my mind up that if I wasn’t absolutely certain where I was going, I was going to just stop before I got into worse bother!

I did that on several roads and generally caused chaos each time, but it saved me getting into even worse trouble.

Never again!

What does the machine do?

 

[smcapstick]

I’ve had a few runs in to London in my DAF. It is a fairly short wheelbase rigid, mind… but I drive there like I drive up here in the Lake District in summer - fill the road, and make it quite apparent that I’m not going to stop!

would that be a legal way to secure a load in the uk. For equipment here we’d have to use chains crossed from the opposite side on each corner. Straps pulled across a tire would be a big ticket if caught. Just curious. Not criticism
