    Hi, I'm looking to purchase a multi purpose tractor tipper.
    In relation to the regulations do they have to have a handbrake if built after 2016?

    I've been looking into numerous brands North of the border but I don't see handbrakes on the majority of them.
    Anything else I should be aware of?

    Thanks, Kay9....

    I'm sure they'll stick one on for you to get a sale over the line. They are a bit of a mickey mouse gimmick anyway, do lads use them at all?
    If yer buying in the north are they going to get dearer after brexit, import duties etc?

    If buying up the north is there anything you need to do from a tax point of view in order to write it off correctly in your own books?

    How did it compare price wise with others? I'll be looking for one in the nes year, probably 14.5x8, not sure on single or twin axle yet, depends on the prices.

    1000 cheaper than the woods HD with ramps.
    There's a big variation in prices so ring around.
