40 year old Land rover pulls 5 tonne container with ease

The container arrived for temporary storage of the yellow turbo project. Just thought I'd share this short vid of it pulling the unit. Actually it had already pulled it a good 10ft by this point, but I had forgotten to turn on "night setting" on the N95 phone!

Sounds more like a Perkins in there

@chomby1991991 Not really, the clutch/drivetrain won't last lost using it like that all the time.

Wouldn't really say 'with ease' but impressive, all the same.

Quite a lot of blue smoke being pumped out as well!

2.25 diesel?

Done that quite a few times with a 90 Td5, pulling the container long ways rather than swivelling it right enough. It'll pull in low ratio no bother, long as you don't catch any really solid bits of ground. To be fair though, I suspect a hummer would do it if it has a low ratio box. Anything with a bit of weight will do this job. What I'd more like to see is a hummer last 40 years, then do it....

Total agree, and I would like to see a bloody hummer do that.
