co-founder of well-known haulier Maguires of Cheltenham, took place last week with a strong show of support from the road transport community.
Maguires of Cheltenham ceased trading back in 2003 but the name lived on after Steve, who died earlier this month after a long battle with illness, founded Premium Collectable Models in the same year.
His younger brother Paul told CM: “We started together at Maguires in 1979 when he was 22 and we had just one vehicle. We just loved trucks – it was in our blood.
