Pre-Owned Cherry Pickers & Access Platforms for Sale in Colwyn Bay, North Wales
Ford Transit Versalift ETM36-F Access Platforms – Built to Your Specification
At Western Platforms, we understand that most buyers are limited by what's available on the market — often forced to stretch their budgets for new equipment, or settle for high-mileage, end-of-life machines.
We offer a smarter solution…
Rather than selling off-the-shelf stock, we work to your brief. You set the specification, and we source and prepare a vehicle to match — all within your budget.
From ULEZ compliance and mileage limits to platform configuration and branding, every aspect is tailored to suit your requirements.
We specialise in the Ford Transit Versalift ETM36-F — a proven, versatile platform offering a working height of 13 metres and a horizontal outreach of 7.3 metres. The platform is simple to operate via joystick controls, features a 200kg SWL basket with duck-under access, and includes a 12v DC emergency lowering pump. With a gross vehicle weight of 3.5 tonnes, it can be driven on a standard UK car licence — making it a practical and accessible choice across a wide range of industries.
Each build begins with a carefully selected base vehicle, chosen to meet your desired mileage and age. From there, we complete a full mechanical and platform overhaul, which can include:
Full or partial respray.
Replacement of hoses and hydraulic components.
Zero-timing (Replacement of pins, bushes, and other wear components).
Interior fit-out with ply lining, shelving, or workbenches.
Installation of work lighting and electrics.
Custom branding or livery.
All machines are supplied fully serviced — both engine and platform — and come with a fresh MOT, a new 6-month LOLER certificate, and are professionally detailed throughout prior to handover. You’ll also receive a full HPI report and vehicle history for peace of mind.
Our aim is simple… to deliver reliable, work-ready access platforms that match your operational needs — without compromise and without overspending. For more information, please telephone 01492 512998.
