Arcadia, based in Bristol, combine sculpture, engineering, performance, music and special effects to create mind-blowing party environments for festivals and events. The team at Arcadia approached Cromwell Trucks about two used 18 tonne Iveco trucks with cranes that would be perfect to help them transport their latest sculptures to summer festivals and events throughout the UK and Europe.

In June Arcadia sculptures, including The Spider a 180 degree live stage and DJ booth, appeared at Glastonbury. You get a perfect sense of the scale of Arcadia's builds from this image taken at Glastonbury.

"Cromwell offered us an efficient service and made it easy to find exactly what we were looking for. The two Iveco trucks are perfect for our transportation and site build needs. Our aim at Arcadia is to continue to design bigger and better sculptures and we will certainly contact Cromwell again when we need more used trucks."

Bertie Cole, Arcadia

As usual we’ll be bringing a variety of our used trucks for sale with us so that customers can take a look and this year we’ll be handing out vouchers giving visitors £500 off any of our used trucks.

We’re also very excited because Oli, the son of our owner Marcus Sansom, will be competing in the quad races. He does this as a sport full time and finished 2nd in the British Supercross Championship last season. Currently he is lying 2nd in the National Offroad Championship and is in the top ten in the British Motorcross Championship, so we’ll all be cheering him on!

"Cromwell Trucks is very pleased to be involved once again with the Weston Beach Race" said Cromwell Trucks owner Marcus Sansom. "The Weston Beach Race has a high profile now, and not just in the off-road world. I'm looking forward to attending this year's race and hopefully, after a successful national campaign this year, see my son Oliver on quad race podium."

The event attracts nationwide interest and around 100,000 people descend upon the Weston-super-Mare shoreline over the course of the race weekend for this unusual, family orientated competition. The famous event takes over the entire seaside town, with contenders and spectators venturing from across the country to take part in the weekend's proceedings.

Due to its high popularity with both fans of motorcycle racing and those not normally interested, The Weston Beach Race is an ideal end of Summer event, and one that Cromwell Trucks is proud to sponsor.

The latest stock includes Daf LF 45-150 7.5 tonne Tippers and Iveco 75E17 2005 Chassis cabs*.

Available now at Cromwell Truck's 4-acre site in the West Midlands, the vehicles are fully tested and prepared by our staff of skilled automotive professionals.

Customers are very welcome to visit Cromwell's purpose-built depot and browse a wide choice of stock which is regularly renewed.

"We are uniquely placed as a business to make large stock purchases - many of our customers like a good choice of ready-to-use trucks and the option to buy more than one vehicle.

We paint trucks to specification where required and late model vehicles enable reduced congestion charges in London."

Adam Sansom, Director
