Not yet Phil,  I'm trying to talk myself out of getting one until I have a garage.... I see the newer shape ones with cranes are going for 10k, not much, or is everyone avoiding them?

Hi Guys,

I'm without garage at present and was wondering if someone has ever used something like this for storing their mog in, out of the weather, would be kept in it for up to a year on my drive -https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-cig1015-heavy-duty-instant-garage-gre/

I kept my old landy outside in all weathers and it didnt like it one bit  :(

Yes of course it will be maintained properly, I'm a stickler for that. I just wanted to be 100% sure of the law before I take the plunge and get one ☺

That sound exactly what I want, are you still OK with no MOT and taxed as agricultural? ?

Trying to flog me a camping pod already and I ain't even got a mog yet! I feel at home here already ☺ I've had an insurance quote today but don't think I can run to the mog in question 😑 maybe it is fate telling me I need a 416....

so as long as it has a pto and linkage i dont have to explain myself?

i will run it on white as i really dont want to push my luck, the miles i will be doing wont kill me on fuel costs.

Can a 406 take a reasonable size box on the back for camping? that should counteract the small wheelbase for off roading  :P

Cheers

Hi Casto

Thank you, nice to be here  :)

Yes i used to drive one when i was a lad in the early 80's, just in a field pulling the bale cart about whilst the men loaded it... ive never been able to shake the feeling off! all i remember is that it had a round bonnet, air handbrake and it would do 55mph, of course it was the mighty 406  :D

Theres no way i would get historic on the one i've got my beady eye on as its a 1981, i dont want a crane as i want to put some kind of box on the back and convert to a day van kinda thing.

So could i say it was for agricultural use but run it on white whilst on the road ? i'm just worries about being pulled and cant prove that i'm a farmer  ???

Cheers

Hi Brian,

Thank you  ;D

i've been 'collating' information for about a year now and nearly bought a 404 radio box last year but chickened out at the last minute! i wish i'd bought it now  :(

its 1981 so i cant do the historic thing, how can i prove i do or dont use it for agriculture? i dont own a farm and am an engineer lol.

i will mainly be messing around locally and going to work in it and possibly the odd steam fair as my old man shows a truck. it seems a very grey area this agricultural lark, if youre not a farmer.

The limited use might work better for me, i'll investigate.

Cheers

Hi Guys,
i'm lusting after a 406, is it dodgy running as agricultural on the road when you're not a farmer? i have a big lawn if thats enough! what about running red too? i'm a bit worried about getting done... it will only be an off road play thing and wont be used for gainful employment.

Cheers
Simon
