Decided to remove the bark from from my front garden today. Hired a trailer from service station and started digging. After four hours i looked at the trailer to see springs where flattend out:eek: but finished of anyway. Disco didn't even notice the weight, got to the dump and weighed in at 4.1 tonne:eek: So Load was approx 1.5 tonne:eek: in trailer that was only rated for aggregate weigth of 750:eek: Started reversing into tip face only for the trailer to sink to the chasis rails in the mud:eek::eek: Engaged low range and pulled it out :D God these 300 tdi are good. They might take there time to get going but they get the job done. After my experience i'm suprised they keep the dump open with all this rain, must check where im reversing next time though so as to avoid nasty bog holes could have been very embarrasing.
