Need a new lorry!

Well not actually new - more used really!

Looking for a flatbed or artic unit with a crane on it suitable for launching the raceboat - 2 tonne at full stretch would be fine!

It never ceases to amaze me at what you lot know about so I thought I would ask the question.

Already searched the net and there isn't a lot out there - a lot more on the continent but I don't want a left hooker if I can help it.

Thanks everyone,

Here in Malta,

They buy second hand Isuzu and Toyota flatbed trucks, with diesel engines of abot 3.6ltr. Here there are a good number of importers of second hand vehicles from japan.

Friend of mine which is a boat importer, just bought a really nice blue one with the crane at the back, I don't know the crane tonnage but they lift the boats with it.

Maybe you can find a good deal from a japanese vehicle importer from the Uk. An egsample of japanese vehicle importer in the uk is http://www.japvillage.co.uk/
