tony, i think its at hedge end , mr wainwrights , and he pulled for eurohaul, after the truck went over he had a toolbox in the passenger side which then fell on him breaking his ribs, also kingswood also had one over at hedge end, cheers paul.

The Kingswoods truck that went over on that slip road was being driven at the time by Martin Greenwood who was on for Hoyer the last time I saw him and that was about 18 months ago.regards Todd

Hi all; Got this superb photo from Hugh Crockett who was MD of trailer rental company T.I.R (Trailer International Rental). He was one of the instigators of the “Kangaroo” design.

What a great looking outfit! Looks like it is a G reg.
