Oxford's new Volvo FH4 cab comes with two tooling options, the G and the GXL. For this release, we've selected the G version, as used by Wains Transport from Kentisbeare in Devon, to pull their substantial tipper trailer. The vehicle is registered WG63 GWW.
The cab, decorated in red and white with yellow graphics and black interior seating, bears the Wain Transport slogan 'UK and European Haulage' and features both the European flag and the Union Flag behind the cab windows. The flags appear again on the tipper sides. The cab and trailer chassis are both red, the tipper section is silver with red graphics and the tipper cover, also red has the detail of a white stripe along its length.
Bringing a modern image to Oxford's heavy haulage fleet, this release also extends the geographical spread to the south west of England, which will please collectors from the region.
