Thread: Iveco Daily 4x4

Saw one in person today.
Pulled over and stared at it for about 3 minutes.
Mighty impressive vehicle.
Tray wasn't much longer than a landcruiser, but for the same wheelbase you got a dualcab.
Looked like it i'd go anywhere.
Twin turbo is same idea as Amarok, am guessing

Ok, this is not exactly relevant to the IVECO, but did you know that Ford has a 4x4 Transit available? I don't know how it compares to the IVECO in dim's etc. I've driven both (many years ago) & thought the Transit the better van at the time. Overall of the vans in this class I've driven (a fair few) think the Transit is my favourite. Just a bit too tall in the old rwd versions though - car parks they can fit into are few & far between in the UK.

Having noted in another thread that the 6x6 perentie requires you to have a light truck licence in QLD (not something I had considered in my dreaming) because of its GVM, would the Daily also need something more then a standard licence to drive? Does this have other implications to driving (log books, hours, rest periods etc)?

Phill

Log books are required under national regulations on any vehicle with a GVM or GCM over 12 tonnes unless it is a bus in which case the GVM is 4.5 tonnes and it has a seating capacity of over 12.
So I doubt it would apply to the Iveco.
In NSW at least you can drive anything up to 4.5 tonnes on a car licence

It is possible to register your Iveco 4x4 as 4495Kg or 5200Kg. At 4495Kg the advantages are being able to drive on a standard car license and also avoid any 12 month road worthy inspections that are applicable in some states.

making a payload capacity of either 1750 or 2455 depending on your rego category

As we both have a HC licence I'm still undecided which way to go ??

If initially registered as 4495kg, can it later be re-registered at 5200kg? I understand that GVM-increased other 4wds cannot ever have their GVM increased if they have already been registered at the original lower GVM.

the iveco vans I have service-the car lience model had single rear tyres.

we have sales reps with Renault,fiat and benz van that have said the same ting.

the dual tyre axle will fit,so to increase the GVM you go down that route.
but recently they don't like you doing that.

Either load category of the 4x4 in question has single rear wheels, unlike the Iveco Vans and older 4x4 Ivecos there is no dual rear wheel option on the new Iveco - SCAM 4x4

all options are singles and can be registered 4500 or 5200 GVM

Standard Wheels: Steel 6” x 17.5” Tyres: 9.5R17.5
Option Wheels: 6.5” x 16” Tyres: 255/100R16 - 100km/h speed limited
Third Party (approved- ROH ) Wheels: 9" x 17" Tyres: 37x12.5R17 LT
