One of the most innovative vehicles on show was the Roadload U-tail conversion shown on a 3.5-tonne Peugeot Boxer chassis.
As exclusively previewed by CM in the recent Movers and Storers Show report (CM 4 March), the British-designed product features a pair of widelyspaced rear chassis members with an open-ended rear. Within the rails is the hydraulic mechanism for raising and lowering interchangeable load pods, which can be a box, flat platform, tipper or anything else, limited only by your imagination. The standard box has an unobstructed floor measuring 3.600mm x 1,700mm, and 2,100mm of internal height. This gives a load volume of 11 M3 and a payload of up to 1,100kg. Payload depends on the body fitted, but should exceed one tonne in most cases, while a four-tonne GVW version is available if you don't mind entering the world of tachographs.
