If Santa used a truck, it might look like this one.

For one point, please respond and identify this truck.

While searching for something else, I ran across this truck on ebay.  The ad says it is a 1985 Ollerton.  However, I'm not sure if Ollerton is the manufacturer of the entire package, or just the manufacturer of the body, as I have never heard of an Ollerton.

Well having had a quick look at the pictures it appears to be built on a Leyland Sherpa chassis (the interior is easily recognised) - however 4popoid did find the original vehicle

Yes, it is an Ollerton, based on the Freight Rover 200 (successor to the Leyland Sherpa).
One more point for you, 4popoid.
