Same here, but with detailed wheel rims instead of the normal plain ones, it could be the 'Benbros' version.

What size is it Tim?

I think it looks too big to be Benbros and it's not a model i recognise to be Benbros..... i might be wrong.

That looks convincing Kevin. Is the flat load area ribbed like the one Tim has?

What a wonderful thing 'Google' is, I searched for 'Benbros' Low Loader and look what Vectis have recently auctioned and the while it is still not totally clear, the load area is ribbed like Tim's example.
