That would be on my drive if the drive was was big enough!!

I would move house for a bigger drive.

All the overlanders i like are too big/expensive

Ps don’t keep putting it on here as I’m hoping he drops the price a bit more (then It might just make knocking 2 metres off the garage worthwhile

I’ll just get back in my box and keep the Carthago a bit longer

To be fair, I wouldn't want to be spending more than £60,000. But never say never.

Not sure if I mentioned this before, I have a Range Rover 4.4. I was looking at new Prices the other Day and with similar spect to mine, they are £110,000 new. makes this look a bargain

I know Ive said this before but if you get your C licence you can get a lot more for your money, that Charisma is almost certainly tight on weight if its at 7.5 btw

at about £1500 its really not that expensive compared to the difference in price for over and under 7.5t.

Yes you can, literally a few months after doing my class 1 they scrapped the class 2 route straight to 1, I enjoyed doing mine, then realised I was so bloody far from the main hubs for haulage and the stupid hrs required went and for my coach license and doing part time for local firm, obviously though you need class 2 if you’re going for the heavier chassis m home

Thanks but I could drive a 12 ton moho on a newly acquired class 1 with no cpc needed (hypothetically of course) that’s how I’ve always read it, class 1 trumps everything HGV right?

Correct and you would almost certainly feel more confident with it. none of us is immune to the benefit of a bit of coaching and constructive criticism.
