    If the vehicle is pre 1960 then yes it will have to be tested as the exemption only covers vehicles used unladen, if built between 1960 and 1974 then it would have to be tested anyway but Historic tax class can still be applied. Post 1974 it will have to be tested and taxed private heavy goods (if over 3500kgs) A living van not exceeding 3500kgs is also exempt from testing and plating

    yes providing the trailer was braked
  3. Brooky
    Correct, the E part of the licence is trailer, it doesnt matter how its attached to the towing vehicle

    Have had fire engines in the past and have returned to the fold It will go very nicely with my 1963 S2 land Rover new to Westmorland and the Dodge Type A water tender my brother owns All ex Westmorland machines!! In fact the Dodge and the Leyland served together at Windermere (Did you get your verification certificate OK?)

    I think we should remember that these tour Ducks (yes I know how I have spelt it!!) bear very little resemblence to a wartime DUKW so direct comparisons cant be made The only thing that may be original is the propellor!!
  10. Brooky
    Dont really know!! It was sold by Westmorland Fire Brigade in the 1960's and spent some time at a Butlins holiday camp in North Wales as a kids plaything It was rescued by a guy from Cornwall (now sadly passed away) from Wales and restored in the 1980's so it could very well be Dont suppose you have any pictures (a long shot I know!!)

    The K9 has part time 4WD for definate Dont thnik though you can have high ratio 4x4 (as per Land Rover) When the transfer box is in low four wheel drive engaged The Morris equivalent though AFAIK had the facility for high ratio 4X4 but this was normally blanked off in the military version
  12. Brooky

    Reading The GMC CCKW Truck in US service...............anything and everything you ever wanted to know about the GMC. A fantastic book as is its sister volume about the DUKW

    I suppose in the real world although anything carried could be construed as a load and therefore the vehicle is not unladen it would be up to a judge to decide
  20. Brooky
    Exactly......................unladen means not carrying goods for hire and reward (providing date of manufacture is stated as pre 1960) CAT B licence
  21. Brooky
    Not sure its a Dennis, could be a Bedford, both carried that type of Miles bodywork
  22. Brooky
    Bit worried about the age of the marshalls
  23. Brooky
    Yes, but as a field car with soft roof and no doors (I think)
