The vehicle

A truck built to go anywhere.

The DAF T244 was built as the British Army's general service 4x4 truck, carrying troops, stores and equipment wherever they were needed. It served from the 1990s and remained a familiar sight on operations and exercises for years afterwards, earning a reputation as a dependable, go-anywhere workhorse.

With its tall cab, drop-side cargo bed and purposeful stance, the T244 has the real scale and presence that only a genuine military truck brings to a scene. It works as hard parked as it does moving, and its honest, worked-in finish needs no dressing to convince.

Ours is a genuine ex-forces example. We hire it in its honest military state, and our graphics team can re-livery it in-house to a particular unit, theatre or period as a production requires.
