5 horse Whittaker 18t lorry with living

Superb 5 horse lorry with loads of living space. We have owned it for more than 3 years, it is totally reliable, a pleasure to drive and use and is ready to be kept busy for the season ahead!

Built by Whittaker in 2000 on a brand new Volvo chassis.

Plated to the end of November 2024

Driven less than 2000 miles since its last service

We've made a load of improvements including everything needed for its European vehicle certificate, so it is all set up to be a practical and comfortable base for stay-away events and shows. Easy to drive (it was my first HGV and I was 20 when we bought it).

A change of yard and circumstances means we no longer this fabulous lorry. As we don't have space to store it at home, it's being sold at an absolute bargain.
