I've seriously considered trading my Ranger in for one of these. They look very practical for all but the harder off road work? I guess when it does come to off road it wouldn't be much of an improvement?!

Whilst I was following your link I had a quick search for Unimog on there - there are hundreds of them. And at what look like fairly decent prices too. Not just vehicles but kit - mowers, loaders, you name it there are several. Even a little Westfalia looking thing!

Have you and your dad ever had any dealings with importing kit or vehicles? Another thing I noticed is that with the German TUV thingy, the mogs generally look in a better condition? There are U900's on there at about 8000 euro that look like they've never done any work! Usually orange, which I think is their council/utility standard colour?

I'm a bit miffed at the moment. This summer has been poor for work and both me and the chap I sub for are feeling the pinch a bit - if this winter is anything like the forecasters say I'm going to struggle. That's the mog out of the window for another year... A year when a mog would be bloody handy if the forecasters are right! ::)

dont, dad says theyre slow, and not much good for anything apart from council work, hence why they weren't for sale in the uk for very long  :-\

what westfalia looking thing, got a link? pm if you can, im looking for a cab ;)

ive never had anything to do with importing vehicles, but im sure dad will have :)
and yeah, in germany theres no such thing as an agricultural vehicle, they all have to be tested :) so safety wise they are generally in good condition.
orange is their council colour ;)

that always the way, things turn up when you cant afford them :) and when you can, theyre hard to find!
