Got this big chap at the beginning of the year to help out with some of the contract work. What a great machine it is. The days emptying full caged trailers of grass by hand with rakes and forks are no more! I love the feeling of taking this in and just pressing the button!!! Everyone should have one of these. In saying that, I do feel very conscious that a lot of people think we're gypo's! It's fun though.

I now use an LM105 flatbed trailer as it is far easier to use day in day out, but the T350 and trailer combo is very good and allows me to work the wide myriad of jobs that I do with minimal shuffling around. The LM is also pretty easy to unload.

Neil, you're not trying hard enough! Get your "motorway maintenance" stickers on the back of that thing, and "£3 million insurance cover" is always a good one. Recycling logos are the newest scam on the Transits around my area, people haven't figured out that your trees are "recycled" to a layby in the dead of night......

Have to agree with you Neil, i recently bought a tipper and theyre great, saves so much time unloading waste! I got a 07 Iveco 35C15 crewcab tipper, brilliant truck, very powerfulk but thirsty as i only manage about 15-20 mpg.

Also have use of a LWB hightop LDV and vivaro LWB. Astra is going though, for a caddy maxi as soon as im back from holiday. The vivaro is going after that to be replaced with a transporter tipper
The LDV is not mine luckily

After many years of unloading waste by hand we finally have a tipper on a custom built Nissan.

Very nice Martyn, that will certainly get you noticed! Is that a 3.5 tonner? If so your 'legal' payload must only be about 750kg?

Martyn that photo of the red mower is all over the net - any idea who actually owns it? :)

This is our tipper. 2011 transit 115 ps. Just enough power to stop me flooring it everywhere, and i can get 30mpg on the run so not all that bad considering the size of it.
The only thing i would like is some high sides on the tipper, any ideas of where i can go and of cost?
Chris i like your high sides. Looks good - Attachments:
