Brick merchant buys into versatility of Renault Range D

London Reclaimed Brick Merchants has taken delivery of its first Renault vehicles, three 26-tonne Range D trucks, citing vehicle versatility as a key factor in its decision.

Supplied by dealer Renault Trucks London, the operator’s new additions are Range D26 Wide 6x2 R320 and are on a five-year contract hire through BRS.

“Renault Trucks offered the best overall deal, including the contract hire arrangement and outstanding vehicle performance,” says transport manager Stuart Wilbraham.

“Our trucks spend most of their time on challenging London roads and accessing building sites, so ground clearance and manoeuvrability are crucial. The Range D allows us to go pretty much anywhere in London and the vehicle’s rear steer is perfect for helping around corners in the back streets.”

The trucks are fitted with a Transloader platform body and Palfinger PK13001A crane, and safety features include a FORS side view camera system, vision glass in the passenger door for better driver visibility, and detachable fall arrest.
