Saints in record MAN used truck deal25 March 2010

Airfreight haulage specialist Saints Transport has signed the largest ever retail order for used trucks through MAN's used truck programme, MAN TopUsed.

The deal involves a total of 60 MAN TGA 6x2 tractor units, which are now on a programmed delivery to the Heathrow-based operator.

When complete, the delivery will replace Saints's entire mixed fleet of DAF, Renault and Mercedes tractors with the MAN units.

"We've never made a secret of the fact that we're right behind the MAN brand," comments Piers Carroll, vice-chairman at Saints Transport.

"The TGA has always been a cracking truck and, with the MAN TopUsed seal-of-approval, we know this latest fleet really is as good as new," he adds.

"We've also never made a secret of the fact that we don't like AdBlue. It's simply an unnecessary additional cost and a real nuisance to administer. The vast majority of our vehicles are above 7.5 tonnes and we're quite happy to be an 'Add Nothing' truck fleet." he concludes.
