Thank you. That does seem to be about the going rate, around £900.

That's actually exceptional value when you think what the MoD taxpayer would have paid for them!

Certainly cheaper than what John Richards or Witham want for them (£850-£1250 +VAT). Will they tow with a light board on the back or do the electrics need to be converted before they'll go anywhere?

When I picked mine up I just cable tied a lightboard on the back to get home.

Devon-Rover, on the type you have do the front, sides, and back all detatch, and corner posts too, leaving a flat deck if required?

That version, which I've seen described as "lightweight", looks very handy.

Hi.

Yes all the sides and tailgate detach but the corner post's don't, they are fixed to the bed.


It is called the Lightweight as the name plate has the rather extravagate naming of..


TLR LW 1.13T 2WHD Special Role

So I Assume it means

Trailer Lightweight 1.13 Ton Two wheel Heavy Duty Special role.

Essentially it is a generator trailer having seen them with 5.5 and 15KVA generators and the support frames bolted to them. Also can be found on Fb, Ytube, Insta & Twitter @4WDSouthwest

Last week I bought one as well. HAs been rolled, so the tub has a bit of a kink in it... might just get a replacement one.

Brakes have been cannabilised but I managed to pick up a complete axle yesterday, so just need a master cyl and the upgraded valve PRV unit (if anyones got one?)

Towed lovely behind my 110.
