The range of Karrier Bantam articulated vehicles were first introduced in 2008 with the last model being released in 2017. The models strangely featured a non-prototypical fifth wheel rather than an authentic Karrier BK or J type coupling.
Base Toys were renamed B-T Models in August 2011 and the company went into administration in October 2017. To date no Karrier Bantam models have been released by the new owners.
