Ah right i thought i noticed it somewhere saying that with the winch the WC52 was over the 3500kg limit but if it's not then thats very good news :-D

Hi There I need a little help i have used the search button and have read a few threads about Driving Licences but i'm still confused :? :? :? I'm 29 and have a Class B Licence as i passed after 1997 so i can drive vehicles up to 3500kg So reading between the lines of one thread it looks like that if the vehicle is Pre 1960 that i would be OK to drive it even if it was over 3500kg But on the thread it looked to say that even if it was pre 1960 i would need to take the extra test for Class C1 can anyone shed a little light on this for me? i'm going to be looking for a Dodge WC very soon which i would guess would be pre 1960 but as i have said above if i can't drive over 3500kg i would need to get the WC51 without the winch and if i can drive over 3500kg i could go for a WC52 is that correct? Thanks Guys & Girls

Thanks for all the info guys, i was thinking of a Dodge WC52 or similar, i would love a GMC but as a first MV would it not be a little bit too much for a novice? what sort of price would i be looking to pay for a good Dodge WC52? and where's the best place to buy from?

I have just had a horrible thought!!!! My licence only lets me drive up to 3.5 tonnes so I’m guessing that that will rules out a GMC :? what vehicles can i drive on the UK roads within this limit?

Thanks Guys, I was thinking about a WWII vehicle something like a Dodge WC?? or something similar what do you think? Storage isn't a problem and i'm a motor vehicle technician by trade so don't mind getting my hands dirty :-D
