Fords of Winsford has added an Isuzu Forward N75.190 long wheelbase manual rigid 7.5 tonne car transporter to its fleet, with the truck's well-documented payload advantage sealing the deal.

Isuzu payload seals the deal for Fords of WinsfordThe Cheshire-based company, which is the biggest car supermarket in the northwest, selling over 7,000 vehicles nationally a year, says it needed a truck offering maximum carrying capacity, because of the diverse range of vehicles it carries.

"Small family cars are one thing, but the larger and heavier 4x4s present a payload challenge," explains Malcolm Bridson, vehicle preparation manager at Fords of Winsford.

"The Isuzu 7.5t rigid meets our requirements perfectly, handling the full range of vehicles we sell, and I'm positive it'll be a valuable addition to our fleet for many years to come," he adds.
The truck was specified with a Dave Bland tilt and slide body and spec lift, with the body constructed in aluminium to further increase the overall payload.

Warrington Vehicle Centre, the local Isuzu truck dealership, supplied the vehicle, which is supported by a five-year repair and maintenance contract with ITUK to cover the anticipated working life of the vehicle.
