Richford Motor Services

A Tribute to One of the UK’s Leading Recovery Operators

We are proud to introduce our latest bespoke commission: a 1:50 scale DAF XG+ 530 (6×2) Falkom heavy recovery truck, finished in Richford Motor Services’ striking “Lest We Forget” commemorative livery.

This exclusive limited-edition model marks the first time Richford Motor Services has commissioned a run of 1:50 scale replicas. Produced by WSI Models exclusively for Search Impex, the model celebrates both the Company’s impressive recovery heritage and the poignant tribute carried by one of the most distinctive vehicles in its fleet.

Expertly crafted by WSI Models, this certificated limited edition faithfully captures the presence and detail of Richford’s eye-catching DAF XG+ heavy recovery vehicle. While the model is based on a Falkom recovery body rather than the Boniface unit fitted to the actual truck, it remains a fitting representation of a vehicle that has become a standout ambassador for the Richford fleet.

Established in 1990 and headquartered in Alfreton, Derbyshire, Richford Motor Services has grown into one of the UK’s largest independent vehicle recovery operators. Operating from a network of depots across the country and supported by a fleet of more than 350 specialist vehicles, the Company provides round-the-clock rescue, recovery and transport solutions for everything from passenger cars to heavy commercial vehicles. As a unique commemorative piece, this model reflects Richford’s continued investment in modern recovery equipment and its unwavering commitment to keeping the nation’s vehicles moving, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
