Perhaps too dear for what it is? I don't know for what sort of application it could be used. I have seen this in the flesh, as it were, and it is practically unused by dumper standards.

Thats about AU$8,000 but a lot now will depend on year model and hours worked on the hour meter if fitted. Look up what a new one is worth probably pop your eyes out.

Not sure what I did in the title. :dizzy:
I saw the machine in the flesh recently, I bought a tank from the guy, not far from home. It looks like a 2 or 3 year old machine. Owned by a water utility, I can't imagine what it was used for, not much by the look. I think it is the Orion model. 2 wheel drive and gravity skip, quite limited use. I took some photos of other bits of interesting kit in the yard, but I ought to ask his permission before posting on here.

Pete, sometimes I don't post photos as the owner has asked me not to, some folk don't mind, but its good manners to ask first. :thumbup:

Down in Sydney where I grew up the Water BOard had a huge fleet of Dumpers they used all the time. Building canals or just trench work taking away and bringing the fill when working in small streets.
When I sold our Roughrider I could have sold it 10 times over. Now Landscapers want them as well as small hobby farmers doing up there small 10 acre plots. I should buy another and onsell it too.
