Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Tata has introduced a drop. side version of the Loadbeta as an alternative to the conventional pickup and has increased prices on the Loadbeta range. The dropside is based on the Loadbeta chassis-cab, with a body made in Birmingham by Portland Commercial Bodies.

The load bed measures 2.20 x 1.75m, and Tata claims a payload of 980kg. The underframe is made from galvanised steel, while the front, the hinged sides and the tailgate are of aluminium planking. The dropside's floor consists of non-slip Wysadeck composite—the tip per version has an aluminium floor.

E. Tata has also introduced "The Bavarian", a hearse coachbuilt by Crowndeed of East Sussex. The diesel-engined vehicle is based on a Loadbeta chassis lengthened by 600mm and costs £22.950 (ex-VAT).
