Had this delivered yesterday


Bought one of these Rolling with laughter

Nice delivery truck, pulled a couple of leavers on the trailer, reversed the tractor unit up with the trailer staying where it was. Then drove the car off.
Amazingly bought this to replace the 2010, 110 xs utility that I sold last week.
So a few little tasks needed on it.
Maybe a roof for the winter. Something to bolt the safety belts too. Wipers and mechanism. And other little bits.
Suggestions welcome.
Let me know if you have some bits taking up valuable space you want rid of.
Once I decide what I want I will put a wanted add on here.
Cheers.

Yes, I thought the trailer was pretty trick. He uses it for transporting tanks when he buys and sells them.
I decided to just have this 110 though.
It shows 36,000 km on the clock with a handful of service cards so it could be correct.
Really no rot, a bit of surface rust on the chassis, and the rear crossmember is mainly still original paint.
Got a few character building dents.
I think I have everything sorted except the wipers now.

That style of "travelling axle" trailer seems to be becoming more commonplace now, it makes me wonder if the original Landoll patents have expired or been licensed. They were/are very popular with recovery operators for dealing with vehicles like coaches that cause problems with their restricted approach and departure angles and conventional trailers.
