Buy or hire the Touring Country if...

  • you want one that is rated 1,020kg heavier gross

The most direct continental alternative to the Ifor Williams HB range. It is both larger inside and lighter unladen than the HB506, which is the trade-off worth understanding: more room per kilo, from aluminium and composite construction rather than steel.
