I've heard about this machine before. It's used in Ireland or England (not really sure about which country) for transporting peat out of the fields. It's called the Predator. I'll see what i can find out about it.

Its working in Cumbria in Northern England. It uses a Cummins engine similar to a Quadtrac. Larringtons own track system. He bought the panels off Class (challenger nose) and the cab from new Holland. The Dumper part of the body and the frame and lift arms are all his own make. Not sure on cost but it is expansive. Last time i spoke to him at SED event he had only sold one.

It was pushed in the press over here in feb time. I cant see it taking off myself as it has a very limited use. Perhaps if it had some sort of unloading mechanism it coul dbe used for haulage of sugar beet off fields but at the moment its very limited.
I think if i can remember correctly it was priced at £160,000.
It has a 400 hp engine i think.

How useful is such a small bucket?? There's no room to mount something bigger.
You better buy a Tatra on flotation tires.
