ALTHOUGH under-3-ton vehicles with hgv licensing in mind, are now as familiar in the animal transport world as in goods delivery, a "super horsebox" was the outstanding vehicle at this year's Royal Show, which closed yesterday at Stoneleigh.
Mounted on a Mercedes-Benz 13/13 coach chassis, this Super Six Mk II horsebox (right) is produced by Lambourn Engineering Ltd, of Newbury, Berks. It can carry six horses plus a pony as well as six passengers and the driver, and there are two bunks available. Mk 1 versions were used by the UK and RussianOlympic teams.
Among the smaller vehicles shown was the under 3-ton Terrier (below) with allaluminium cattle truck bodywork by Carmichael of Worcester.
