With 70 VLA’s already on the fleet, Richford are extremely confident in the VLA’s ability to get the job done.  All their vehicles including this one, have been built to Richford’s exact requirements and all include numerous optional extras to make life easier and safer for the operator.  These latest vehicles are fitted with greedy ramps which allow a casualty vehicle to be positioned over the winch - maximising deck length, 2000Kg capacity 2nd car lift, side winching points, wheel skates, wrecker kit, radio remote control with cab mounted holder & buzzer, LED strobes, LED beacon, LED work lights, jump leads and much more.

All Boniface slidebeds feature galvanised sub-frames and tilt-frames which help prolong equipment life and many are available with a choice of either steel or aluminium decks. The aluminium VLA deck features flat side raves meaning that the full width of the bed can be used when loading extremely wide vehicles.
