That unladen weight on the Matador is 9.4 long tons. Does that mean it has a permanent gen set etc on the back?

What do you reckon the overall weight of these combinations are and what sort of MPG do they get?

Those Living wagons are Fantastic and Beautiful,

What are the speed limits for a showman’s 3 trailer locomotive & are they allowed on motorways? Regards

It’s an invasion of wonderful noise!

Who was next door ? Lol

Excellent video

Love watching this video the noise when they pull out !!!

You can just imagine the green focus driver yelling "B*gg*r"

Lovely sounding Gardner engine

The showmen really know how to make their old lorries and caravans last.

Did tons of hitchhiking in the ‘70’s - used to wave these on by even then, waited for the lads in the Dafs and Volvos...😀

I have the Oxford model of the Cargo. They even got the wheels right! I normally prefer the heavier Ford Cargo with 10 stud split rim wheels but this is a fine exception. Glad I clicked.

AEC Matador I think with 2 trailers.

That sounds sweet

wow stair rods

Will we ever see the like again!😔

Good to watch 👍🚛

Wish they had some more old fair ground rides such as the skid

Fantastic 3 trailers. Love it.

That truck looks like it should be chasing a car down a windy road and driving through phone booths.

Do you still own this?

Lovely to see them being used for their intended purpose, and also great to see a Ford Cargo that isn't a horsebox!

Always loved the look of these trucks and love the fact the exhaust is at the front !!

did you run out of room at Ashington. glad you still have the matador that's helped me no end of times. glad your still around.

ola gostaria de saber se eu poderia entrar em contato com agem que querem vender caminhão aec matadot tenho iterse

3 now? Huh!

Lovely old caravans D

The Matador is doing a triple tow. Not sure thats legal. Thought double tow only. I know it won't go above 25mph, but length and turning circle are dangerous. Imagine a driver goes to overtake what he thinks is 20m long to find it's double that.

Lol it’s rainy outside and the fair is wet

Lol rainy outside and th fair is wet

Working folk and work hard at entertaining to keep the money flowing in

IT was more you couldn't see in the dark the old girl knew where she was going

Come on old girl pull your load

Tap it he's got it

He's shouting as usual you playing games with him don't get him started

The wettest ground I've ever seen is that grandpa Harris shouting only a shower

That's a waltzer covered up in the back of that wagon

Thanks for your kind reply. I have a keen interest in old transport ( Dad was a Driver) got a few cam recorder tapes of Hull and Goose fair taken about 1993 ish and are similar to this shunting video but loads of it and loads of smoke and cold starts ( must dig them out) and suss how to upload.

I bet that has seen some action .I wonder what history it has ?

Do you drive everywhere in that formation/order?

Nice explorer but nah, it's gotta be an AEC for me, what happened to that livingvan that goes behind the ERF a-series

amazing looking motor for its age..sound good as well. thanks for posting

Great video mate please do some more on the Kenworth :)
