hmm, yes around field and probably upto about 40 on road but not legally, somewhat over length, width and weight. whats a 380v electrical supply, reads as built for showman. certainly would be showing off with that on back....man!

i think you can legelly tow it with a lorry and hgv licence, not to sure though, could you imagine turning up at a caravan club site and seeing the wardens faces, it's was bad enought when i went to one with my transit camper. tezzer |

not so much an hgv or even lgv (c) as renamed last 10 years but certainly a decent tug
in 7.5tonne class, ie c1 (+e). i gvw>3500kg, merc sprinter 417 perhaps. re cc club quite so, not your typical gin palace is it, but oh joy of flashing your member -ship card and saying i do have a reservation for (2)? pitches. lol. mind with current £ to euro rate, think would buy yank, either a proper airstream on 3 axles about 35 foot or a nice fith wheel with a dodge ram to yank it around.

right then so looking for a new tug in c1 class to haul a bigger
van, maybe not this one but a big hobby etc. any thoughts. needs to gvw>3500 so a merc sprinter 41x be minimum i guess any other small 4/5 tonners out there. previously thought of an ex police 416 mwb twin rear wheels 2.9 tdi auto fitted with 9 seats and plenty of cell/boot. believed to gross @4600kg, but couldnt track down gTw. handy size in mwb not too long to park, also customise it to look more mpv than commercial. think merc to a 4x4 conversion too, seen mwbs in use with utilities as well, not as common as 3 tonne lwbs though.
