I dont think that is clearly saying that its a recovery truck. If its the same box van on the back then either a/ the box van is very unreliable or b/its not actually USED as a recovery truck but more to save fuel as the box van travels gets a piggy back. You see construction companies doing this, loading spare vehicles onto a low loader to save fuel.

I 'think' that its the use of the vehicle that determines if it needs an OL and not the design

Yes its the use of the vehicle that determines whether you need an OL. Moving a running or non disabled vehicle is classed as haulage and you need an OL.
