The Sheffield-based operator's latest addition is its usual spec Thompsons Loadmaster Lite bodywork, on 410bhp Euro 6 Scania chassis, but this one is finished in deep metallic ruby paintwork and hi-gloss lacquer.
"The colour for our 40th anniversary truck really chose itself," says managing director William Hague. "The final result looks quite stunning and has already attracted a great deal of comment."
The truck has aluminium wheels and chrome finish protectors to both the rear axle hubs and wing mirrors.
Hague says Thompsons has been his preferred tipper bodybuilder for many years.
"The latest Loadmaster Lite model is supremely versatile, able to handle every type of payload from sand and aggregates through to muckaway, as well as all manner of materials from demolition," he says.
