This very modern horsebox is superb in the Scottish livery of Eric Gillie Ltd.
The Kelso based company is a family concern, founded by Eric and Jane Gillie. Now in its second generation, with sons Alan and Michael and niece Linda, as well as daughter in law Karen all playing a key role, the compant celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2010. They purchased their first new Oakley horsebox in 1987 to their own bespoke design and over 25 years on, Eric Gillie still uses the company for all his transport needs.
The striking Eric Gillie livery of two-tone blue and cream has a wealth of additional graphics, all authentically reproduced. Note particularly the horse's head on the front and the Royal Crest on the sides.
