Marlin Environmental Services has taken delivery of a new Volvo FE 6x2 rear-steer tanker with an ADR-compliant, vacuum sludge tanker.

Supplied by dealer Stuarts Truck and Bus, the Chichester-based operator’s latest addition is a 4,100mm wheelbase, day cab FE and is equipped with the D8K280 8-litre engine rated at 280bhp and the I-Shift automated gearbox. Bodywork is by Buckinghams, of Kenilworth.

Marlin’s latest tanker is the sixth Buckingham-bodied Volvo since 2005, with an upgraded spec to better accommodate the range of services that Marlin offers. The vehicle has a 3,100 gallon, high-grade stainless steel barrel, fully opening rear door with hydraulic assistance and high performance water-cooled exhauster vacuum pump.
