April 4, 20251 yr I only just twigged: it's the end of the tax year. So what? So, plant hire and owner operators are selling their old gear and have bought brand new stuff before the end of the tax year. That means there's a flood of 3-5 year old equipment on the market. Their finance deals are often 3 / 4 / 5 years and capital allowances for tax often incentivise companies to buy new stuff.
