This is a truly unique vehicle having been completely renovated over the past 12 months. This 6.5 tonne lorry is a real eye turner restored to a very high standard it causes a real stir everywhere it goes.
Mechanically she is in great condition the 3.8 litre engine pulls well despite her 52 years and although definitely not the fastest vehicle on the road (top speed 40mph) she is definitely the best looking.
Internally she offers a high out put catering setup with the rear kitchen area a massive 4.9 meters long and and over 2.2 meters wide.

The layout is easily changed and the rear doors on both sides offer lots of options for any set up including additional cooking area to the rear to increase throughput while not affect her amazing looks.

Being a 6.5 tonne lorry she can be driven on a normal driving licence and her age means she is MOT and Tax exempt.

A change in circumstances means we no longer have the time to give this business what it needs.
