Oxford's 1:76 scale car transporter is based on the Evo6 12-car load transporter made by Hunwick Engineering Ltd in Essex. The company history goes back to 1992 when a nucleus of engineers branched out from parent company Hoyner to form Transporter Engineering, with the trade name ‘Transporter’. They went on to win several awards for their trailer designs throughout the 1990s. In 2010, the assets of Transporter Engineering were purchased by the present owners Hunwick Engineering, whose background was supplying parts for transporters, giving them a total understanding of the business.
Oxford's first release on the Evo6 Transporter in Stobart Automotive livery is an opportunity for Eddie Stobart enthusiasts to add an unusual vehicle to your Stobart fleet in the company’s familiar green, red and white colour scheme. The intricate tooling design is complemented by a mass of different paint, print and masking operations on this highly detailed model. Registered AY12 AKU and sporting the StobartGroup.com lettering on the side of the white roof, the Scania cab also incorporates the car ramp sides and tops, safety railings and side body pillars. The trailer with its dual grey painted ramps carries the Stobart name along the horizontal safety railings in large letters and Automotive printed on the two vertical pillars.
