Used to be a dealer in Carnforth. They looked really well made when I saw them.

Look identical to Ifor in a few ways

Nice, strong and well built

Every bit as good as an Ifor, I had one for a few years, great to tow.

We've got one and it is excellent. I would say that it's probably better made than an Ifor. The one we use is a 12 foot tipper with removable standard height and high sides as well as loading ramps. It pretty much does everything. It's one of the most useful bits of kit that we've got. It's still looking tidy after four years of hard work.

The one ive seen is only a little 8-5 but looks a cracking trailer

used a big Hudson for a few years, great trailer, every bit as good as an ifor. to be honest I don't see what makes an Ifor twice the price of any other trailer, you have home made trailers and factory made trailers, there isn't much difference between the factory made stuff. Its not like the engine is sharper, or the gears are smoother. As long as the balance is right! If I was buying a new trailer i'd go for a Hudson or a Nugent!
