Wouldn't be without ours now, 13 tonne is much more useful than the jcb we had before

The EA ones wouldn't have been worked very hard.

Hard to find the seat/controls/ignition switch as cab crammed with excessive clipboards.

At least a 13 tonner is a bit more difficult for the usual to steal!!

Slightly off topic, but this could of been really nasty.
Yesterday went and met low loader driver that was unloading a JCB 140 X series excavator. Doing the hirevcustomer a kindness he had backed down the drive that was sloping away from the back of the low loader and through the drive gate . He starts driving down the ramps and then to everyone’s horror digger slides to the bottom of the ramps!!!! Everything happened in a couple of seconds, good job it never flicked around and over???.
The driver had a small Kubota U48-4 on the front of his lorry which he was delivering to me, I went to escort him to my isolated yard.

Cripes Derrick, that looks like some feral land in the background you are trying to tame? Please post photos as it evolves.
