I've actually driven one of them MAN L200 wagons from Workington to Swindon and boy do they shift - that was about 8 years ago and it wasn't restricted - I remember flying down the M6 @85 in this 7.5tonne unladen weight flat bed - as it was plated up to 11.5 t laden
We had special dispensation to drive them from DVLA as we were on trade plates as we weren't using them for commercial purposes just to move them from a-b and not carrying goods - should of seen the looks we got from the other lorry drivers at 4am in the morning as we went bowling past them flol.
