was working in the cbd this morning and had to park in a multi level carpark, the only space available was at the end of the level right next to the ramp up to the next level. the bt50 stuck out a metre or so and all the poor sods who had to negotiate the already tight turn were none too happy :roll: :lol:

16 foot Millards are roughly 1000 kilos. The chassis will have extra steel welded in fore and aft to form the wheel tracks. Mates van/trailer carries V8 cars no worries. The limitation is the width between the standard axle/wheel set up. My Mazda is under 980 kilos. The Fiat is under 600.
