Haulage firm T Maxwell & Sons has marked its 40th anniversary with its first Euro 6 truck, a DAF XF 510 FTP Super Space Cab, which carries the firm’s original 1970s livery.
The Crumlin, Northern Ireland-based operator has also ordered three more same-spec XFs, due for delivery in January.
The latest addition is joined by two CF 330 FAS Space Cab 6x2 rigids, all supplied by dealer TBF Thompson.
Compay director Tommy Maxwell says: “DAF has given us first-class care from day one. Back in September 1975, DAF was the only manufacturer to give my father finance on his first truck.”
T Maxwell & Sons’ relationship with the dealer extends over two decades and, says co-director Terry Maxwell, “it’s the dealer support that’s the crucial part”.
He adds: “I view TBF Thompson as a real partner in our business locally.”
