CE or Grey?

Spotted last week at the Cheshire Oaks designer outlets in the UK – what looks like a Tadano TS75 fresh off the boat.

Given that this crane is no longer an officially imported model, or designed to meet the latest European crane or emission standards, one has to wonder if this unit is a grey market machine or an oriental crane rental company working far from home. Or perhaps a personal import?

Spotted in the UK a Tadano TS75 Grey or official?

The little crane is still highly popular, with a 4.9 to eight tonne maximum capacity – dependent on where it is sold. It can handle eight tons at 2.3 metres or seven tonnes at 2.5 metres and boasts a 21.3 metre boom which can lift to a radius of over 20 metres and weighs just nine tonnes.
