you are right, a load constitutes anything that is not fixed to and forming part of the vehicle, technically the water itself would have been a load, you are merely exchanging one type of load for another...however as the vehicle has been modified it may change things......... i think there would be a loop hole for the tax and test as you are not using the vehicle in the course of a business or for hire / reward ergo you are still using it for social domestic and pleasure. a bit of a grey area methinks, I shall make some further enquiries..... just thinking on i wonder if one of these would go into the back of a horse box ? you could make the remainder of space accomodation for shows etc...and you can get horse boxes pre 72 again tax exempt.
any road have we found out who's carrier it is that is going ?

Which models of truck were you using as if it will come in under 7.5 ton I will consider doing it. From memory your Carrier is a Mk11* as well but with the manual being so specific on weights I was not going to bother buying a 7.5 ton truck. The most older models of 7.5 truck will carry is 3.5 ton. Last edited by Neil Ashley; 20-06-10 at 13:20. |

Only Barry's carrier was there. I think there are pictures on the Armour and Embarkation site and YouTube. I saw Barry nearly do a pirouette.
