Don't see tippers that big on 4 axles, never mind 3.
If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

The red Leyland Reiver 6 down , agree it is enormous, maybe some photo edit trickery but nothing else looks stretched and why ?

I reckon at 24'x7'6"x3' is best part of 20cuYd if my guesstimations are right.

Very odd length for a 6 wheeler. A closer look and something not quite right with the photo. The top of the tipper sides do not line up properly and look slightly different.

The old Weatherill 42H is loading in an awkward way or is it topping up on a weighbridge?

I see your point, is it the top rail of the gate causing the change of perspective?
