Always fancied a phantom evo rib. Not sure on the truck tho...

Forgive my daft ness ! But how would you slip it / or get the trailer / trailer and boat back on / off the flatbed ?!

my guess would be that the two reflectors at the rear of the truck would be slid out ramps, but it's only a guess.

Don't think so, not enough room for ramps over the rear wheels. Reckon its a crane on jobbie as there doesnt appear to be a winch at the rear of the cab. And why the top spoiler? It just creates more wind resistance therefore higher fuel consumption. Would have been better with a sleeper cab if going long distances. I reckon the Atego is probably one of the worst 7.5 tonners to drive - much prefer the Iveco

Isn't the trailer is bit superfluous? You can pop it straight into the drink, then onto a cradle?

You're right, I messaged the owner and he/she says they crane it on/off, bit pointless having the truck then, when you could tow it with a good 4x4.
Got another reply, it's listed separately,

Therefore valuing an 06 Atego 7.5 ton truck at £28,000 ! Our 54 plate Iveco only cost us in the region of £7,000 and that was 4 years ago !
