Toyota Hi lux max towing weight?

[ARW]

At least he would get there and back even if he did get stiff legs

I was thinking more of a fatigued left hand from stirring that huge gearstick 3ft forwards and backwards, never mind the white finger it gives you. I forgot about the hilux seating position that makes you sit like a fat baby

What piece of machinery is it?

Wifes car definitely not inconspicuous!

White with white leather and 20 odd inch diamond cut alloys. Look like a drug dealer.

Yeh tell me about it mine put a private reg on hers with my initials on ffs and there’s the fancy alloys too. I don’t drive it for the main part.

Ours has BF Goodrich tyres and feels like its going to vibrate itself to bits when you hit 70mph!

Is it Jenkinson that sends dozens of trucks full of wood chip down south every day and probably go back mostly empty?

Yes he does get some stuff back up though

Ballast roller full of water

Everyone thinks your a d!ckhead when driving ours, and treats you as such.

Doesn't bother her.

Like yourself I very rarely drive it. She loves it.

It would surely be worth asking how much they want, if possible, to deliver the mystery machine northwards.

Are you going to do the 900 miles in a day?
If it was a 1000 quid for exclusive use of the truck I'd just pay it. It's their problem and their insurance if it goes wrong.
If its an expensive piece of kit and is travelling as LTL freight, you might have to wait for them to get a full load and it could get damaged being made to fit the load, dropped at the wrong place etc.
Getting it yourself could go well or could turn into a nightmare.

Decisions, decisions.

What about Seacliff Haulage. I know they are not based nearby but they must be hungry for work like most hauliers.

 

[Robt]

I should maybe forget it. Insurance going to be next issue. Piece if machinery worth over 20k.

Call Fraser . He will sort you out . Manners haulage

 

[livestock 1]

Take it to bits and put it on 3 pallets

3 x £140 = less than £900

 

[startinghandle]

Mervyn Thomas Radnorshire Ltd fetched digger and matbro for us a while ago reliable firm ,reasonable price who move stuff all over country

 

[KennyO]

@Chae1 just send DFM down for it. He like a run out.
Fred Murray at Brechin would be worth a shout too.

Yeah, would definitely give Clive a try. Never used Fred Murray.

 

[Fendtbro]

Haven't had 1 haul something that distance for much less. How much would you take to haul it to Aberdeenshire?

Need 20ft bedspace

Have you had Steven Walker price it?

 

[indiescot]

Two years ago i bought a backhoe digger from north wales and it was £500 to bring it up to angus and it a haulage company from inverness but cant remember there name. I think a digger would be similar space to your machine chae

Checked the plate on my 63 plate 3.0 Invincible Hilux, its rated to tow 2800kg so I'd guess yours will be the same.
Personally I'd chance it if it doesn't look wild and you have a tidy trailer underneath it.
Fuel consumption will be cruel if its anything like mine though.

Steven Walker, Stewart trailers, Marshall trailers, Manners would be my list of hauliers to try.
