Yeh thats the one! Being loaded by ZX670....it seems strange to me that they match an 80 tonner with a pair of A35D's and a 67 tonner with these trucks, surely it would be better and more economical to have the PC800 loading these trucks?

Yeh......i was talking to the guy that drives round in the land rover....im assuming he's the site foreman! and i asked him how old they are and he reliably informed me that they are older than me....im 22, He also mentioned that they have just bought some new one's in mot sure if he meant the latest series or some new reconned machines.
