Wet Weather Machine

October 7, 2016 By Maggi Barnard

landboss-in-showroom-parkes

The Landboss 800 UTV 4×4 is a very appropriate machine for the wet weather. Light enough to skip across the wet ground yet built to carry 450kg with a 700kg tow capacity. Other features include big tow-points provided front and rear and selectable diff locks front and rear – you select two or fourwheel- drive for the most challenging conditions.

The Perkins diesel engine, built in Japan, gives great economy with high torque and plenty of road speed. Transmission is a Canadian CVT with hi and lo ranges. You can crawl along slowly behind stock and accelerate
away to round up stragglers without changing gears.

Tyres are 6-ply heavy duty 14” in diameter with a 5-stud pattern. A bench seat with three seat belts provides accommodation for passengers. A tilt steering column gives the driver some extra room. The electric power steering helps prevent kick back from rough paddocks. The suspension is independent with adjustable load carrying springs. Available at SincockLVM Parkes and Condobolin for an amazing $17, 990 incl GST. Phone Bruce Cobb on 0447 560 342.
