iv a budget of 12k for a tow truck, wat can ya do???!!!!

[Livewire 78]

12 k? i could finish the same truck as mine and cover it in gold for 12k!

id say if you have 12 k in mind for a tow truck you've been looking at a lot of irish trucks- over priced and over rated to say the least, this country is just horrible for buying anything in, best job is to do it yourself, or i can do it for a fraction of the cost, just heard the tother day someone i know paid 6k for a body for a truck!! i told him i would have done same one for 1500!

if i had 12 grand to spend when i started mine id have a 05/06 model with a higer spec model and still ahve change for a drift car

not gonna say what mines cost me but its a lot less than what id sell it for, fact, and thats uk prices not mad irish ones!

arrgh irish sellers annoy me!

what you after?
3.5 tonne truck similar to mine?
or 7.5 tonne to take 2/3 cars?


bit of work done this evein after work
