VLA Number 11 & 12 for Richford Motor Services

As one of the UK’s largest recovery operators, Richford Motor Services are continually updating and expanding their fleet.  Constant re-investment into the business not only ensures that their fleet is always up to date with the latest developments and safety features, but also allows the business to grow - enabling them to take on new customers and contracts without compromising their exemplary standards and customer service.

Pictured are the last two vehicles from a recent batch of 12 MAN’s fitted with Boniface VLA slidebeds.  With many 3t and 5t VLA’s already on the fleet, Richford were extremely confident in the VLA’s ability to get the job done.  All the vehicles including these ones, have been built to Richford’s exact requirements and all include numerous optional extras to make life easier and safer for the operator.  The vehicles pictured were fitted with greedy ramps which allow a casualty vehicle to be positioned over the winch - maximising deck length, 2000Kg capacity 2nd car lift, side winching points, wheel skates, wrecker kit, radio remote control with cab mounted holder & buzzer, LED strobes, LED beacon, LED work lights, 12v & 24v jump lead sockets and much more.

All Boniface slidebeds feature galvanised sub-frames and tilt-frames which help prolong equipment life and many are available with a choice of either steel or aluminium decks. The aluminium VLA deck features flat side raves meaning that the full width of the bed can be used when loading extremely wide vehicles.

We would like to thank Richford Motor Services for their continued business, and look forward to handing over more light and heavy duty vehicles to them in the very near future.
