Our Vehicles
At Pembrokeshire Road Training we are able to offer customers training for cars and trailer towing, mini-bus, bus/coach, rigid and articulated LGV. Our recreational and vocational training vehicles were sourced to provide our customers with a training vehicle that are modern, well appointed, and appropriate to provide realistic expectation of drivability after completion of training, and employment commencement.
We only provide training for class C+E with a full size articulated tractor unit coupled to a 13.6 metre tri-axle trailer, giving an overall combination length of 16.25 metres. We believe to train with a reduced size vehicle combination will not fully prepare a candidate for any future employment. Due to our training policy, we are the preferred local training provider for several international haulage companies.
All our vehicles are regularly maintained, and when required, only replacement parts supplied by the manufacturer dealer network are fitted, ensuring reliability and continued performance.

A Mitsubishi Pajero, a 4 wheel drive MPV vehicle used by farmers and the equestrian fraternity, known as a solid towing vehicle.
