Agree. Plus a 15-/20-cwt trailer is much wider than the Bedford MW towing it.

For comparison, here is a F15A CMP 15-cwt towing a 20-cwt trailer. The CMP was both longer and wider than most British 15-cwt trucks.

The bud wheels indicate a 20 CWT.

Indeed, as I wrote that is a F15A CMP 15-cwt towing a 20-cwt trailer.
