Believed still to be in the South East of England.
Attached is a picture of the D8, however it did have the blade on when it was stolen
it was put on to a low loader and driven on the Motorway.

Who ever stole that sure has some big ones. That's a massive machine to haul away. Hope you find it. Post a serial number if you have it.

I agree, huge ones, to trailer it on the road with the blade on !!

The S/No: 53Y1095

The company have offered a reward for the recovery ,as this has hit them very hard being a family run business.

No the blade was on another lorry which we got back as well, lots of people involved in the theft, the 8 was booked on a boat the next morning out of the docks.
took a picture of me and my boss posing beside the D8 today which should be attached, just can't get over the size of it, for some one to try and nick it.
Graham, I'm just outside of Chichester

Hi Yogi, Do you work for the owners ?
I run an earthmoving outfit from Berkshire and hadn't heard of any D8L's owned and working in the south. You say you are suprised at the size of the machine so i guessed you might not know the owners. It was lucky to catch the bugger before it sailed. Some ones not happy along the line now i bet. Serves them right.
Gordon.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
