Buy or hire the D30 if...
- you want one that is the bigger machine by 1.8 tonnes
A 3-tonne diesel forklift used on building sites and in yards for shifting pallets and building materials. It is bought and hired mainly for outdoor work where a diesel engine and rough-terrain tyres suit it better than an electric truck.

Buy or hire the CX25D if...
A compact mini excavator sized for tight gardens, drainage runs and small groundworks jobs rather than large site cuts. Its sub-3-tonne operating weight lets it travel on a plant trailer behind a car-derived van, which is why small tool and plant hire firms keep one alongside larger diggers.
