I towed a 4.5 tonne American truck up a mountain in Iceland.  He could idle (so had brakes and steering, thank god) but couldn't actually rev the thing.  So I towed him up to the top of the mountain, gave it a kick and he coasted down to the village on the other side.

Given the Disco was fully loaded with 7 people and a roof rack stacked with gear at the time, we were probably around 7.5 tonnes all-in.  Hence I needed low box.  The guy in the truck was pretty impressed though.

I said "Flash your lights if you want me to brake".  He said "Er, I'll do the braking for both of us!"

It's not the winning it's the taking part - I bet the golf owner & police didn't feel you were 'mince' :wink:

I once towed a full dust cart out of the way, as it had broken down in front of where i wanted to get too, dunno how heavy they are but i guess it would fall into the category of " would not like that on my toe"    so i reckon i done my self a good deed ??? :)
