hey all anyone know were i can pick up a cheap second hand mini or micro digger, the smaller the better (do they do half tonne mini diggers?) um yer any help appreciated, oh im in norfolk area but will travel for a cheap mini digger
ok so maybe belfast is too far to travel haha was thinking more under a hundred miles of travel. thanks tho, do u no if they do half tonne diggers
try ebay, but when u pick it up, check u aint pickin it up from a gypo and that it says tp hire on the side
ha very good advice, went to see one advertised in a local paper a few months ago and walked when i saw the large hire stickers slapped all over the machine, thought a digger for £500 was to good to be true
Could be the hire company had sold it off? I mean, if you stole a digger from a hire company to sell on, surely the first thing you'd do is remove all the stickers? Should have been easy enough to phone up the hire company to see if it was legit - or to tell them where to find their missing digger?!
Ex-hire diggers are sold all the time, what else do you think the hire company does with it's older ones?
very doubtful it was a bargain i missed out on, not a scratch on a digger and only £500, a nicked opne i think!
Yes you can. To give you an idea of what one looks like... http://www.awkwardexcavations.com/ (and no, this aint me!...i'm much better looking) and for a full range of diggers http://www.just-diggers.co.uk/ or have a look on ebay http://business.shop.ebay.co.uk/items/Diggers__W0QQ_armrsZ1QQ_mdoZBusinessQ2dOfficeQ2dIndustrialQQ_msppZQQ_pcatsZ112392Q2c64808Q2c12576QQsacatZ95493 This one looks a cracker... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/images/B0015CTHJC/ref=dp_image0?ie=UTF8&n=468292&s=kids M
lol nice one. can u get a half ton digger? You can, but I wouldn't get anything less than 1 ton. It will not be much bigger so you can still get inside buildings and you will have more reach and power. Mini diggers hold their price well so they're never very cheap unless they're stolen.
That's the best idea, l-c; buy one , use it, and sell it on. (Personally, I think BFS should report the dodgy one he saw to the 'owners' and when they recover it, he could ask them for a loan for being a good citizen... )
hey all, thanks for all ur help. gave my local hire frm a ring and asked if they had 'lost' a digger, gave them details of where there misplaced digger was and now am getting a v good price on hire of one!!! thanks again guys
