I have always had a JCB 3CX in my business Advanced precission control and now looking to purchase the dual control yet watching this content I want a grey cab!! Whilst watching this I went on a trip back 32 years ago when I first operated a grey cab turbo, I was young and full of excitement to think I was lucky enough to be operating a JCB turbo and getting paid!.I spent many an happy hour carving out my skill at operating this unique machine, there are many types of 180's wheeled excavators but only one that stands out around the world today and way back then is the JCB 3CX SITEMASTER.

The grey cab (88-91) SiteMaster turbo is great fun to own and to operate. Smooth controls, straight forward to maintain and very reliable. Always makes me smile when on a job with it. Not sure if you will be able to get your hands on a good 88-91 grey cab turbo SiteMaster- if you fine a good one - buy it!

[@simongleed]

I know how you feel feller, you have fantastic machine in great working condition too. I would like to restore a grey cab turbo but nothing around worth retoring right now that’s in average condition, the one’s I have seen are in scrap condition off a farm. Keep putting up your content and by the way you are an excellent operator.- 180 are all about positioning the machine to maximise the digging out and you demonstrate that with ease - Great work 👍

Another excellent video, Paul the 3cx certainly worked that day. The ground conditions looked a little sticky at first until the sun came out. It's a shame the bedrock is too high, and you had to come back with the breaker looking forward to next week's video. In the meantime, keep up the excellent work, pal 😊👌👍

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Thanks for the comment Benny. Yes, this site has not been the easiest, but we were making progress 😊

[@marcensbury5713]

Excellent video Paul well done ur jcb worked hard keep up the good work

[@diogomatos4097]

Tough ground there...We can see rock and bricks mixed. Maybe a house were there some years ago? Well acomplished Paul

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Yes I think that a house was on this land many years ago and now has a lot of mixed fill material. Not sure if the video shows it too well but the road is a very steep slope!

[@Neg-Ice]

Saw the same machine growing up as a kid, solid, keep working her.

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Me too, I will do my best! ☺️👍

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Laid up... 😮 Hope you have been enjoying the videos 👍 It has been ok of a job, could have another bigger job and filming it - coming in 2024, if it comes off??

[@jamesbloomfield2741]

Fantastic!! Just curious, “other words I want one!!”😂 what’s the fuel running cost on an average day?

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Working hard on site with no transport 10gal a day. Add some roading and it can be 15-20 gal with a long busy day 👍
