Price list and specifications
The latest Motor Shuttle trailer provides solutions to virtually all aspects of enclosed vehicle transport.
Quality of presentation and integrity of the designs are the guiding principles for these unique trailers, The revised 2011 model designs extend the
advantages Motor Shuttle has always offered with new loading arrangements and a wider side door, plus many weight reduction features.

Motor Shuttle
Significant abilities as a specialist vehicle transporter are well recognised and as a result Motor Shuttle has become popular for all forms of prestige vehicle movement. Although the basic
concept of high quality in every aspect of construction and design has remained unaltered since the first Motor Shuttle produced in 1995 there have been several significant advances made
since.
In 2011 we announce a major new phase in development of the Motor Shuttle product featuring a new loading system, additional side door features and continuing efforts in weight
reduction looking to achieve the overall objective of fuel conservation and hence to lower running costs. The Motor Shuttle is the lowest cost option in the market when considering
running costs and depreciation. Evolution of these ideas is always taking shape to meet the challenges of the present and future.

Features of operation:
Loading.
A hydraulic pump / ram operated tilt-bed with a large secure clamp for travel plus gas-spring assisted tail ramp door combine to
provide a super-low loading angle arrangement, all achieved with the minimum of effort. The rear door is white aluminium lined
to the rear providing an aesthetically pleasing and durable finish. Security is achieved using the closing & locking system developed
for the Race Shuttle RS5. This is unique mechanism is proven to provide high clamp forces, preventing movement during
travel, important as experience suggests this is extremely critical to durability on long distance trailers.
Access.
Entry to attend to vehicle tie-down activity is via two forward access-hatch doors. Each has stainless steel hinges, latches and
fasteners. The main side door layout is dependant on the model chosen. Top specification 370-0301 models feature a pair of twin
side doors. The combined aperture is 2.03m wide and provides plenty of scope for vehicles doors to open unhindered. All doors on
Motor Shuttle are independently locked.
Towing.
Brian James Trailers have used all 33 years of experience in the business to great effect in specifying and arranging the running
gear on Motor Shuttle. Owners have a choice of a conventional twin axle set up or the highly popular tri-axle configuration.
Each is capable of serving for hundreds of thousands of trouble free miles. Motor Shuttle has always been a favourite among
professional transport operators and we build to meet this standard.
