Used truck of the week is a 2013 Scania R560 Topline Griffin with 16-litre V8 engine from West Pennine Trucks.
This 13-plate vehicle comes with twin sleeper cab, leather seats, fridge/freezer, microwave and coffee maker and includes the manufacturer’s on-board coaching system to assist the driver to achieve the best possible fuel economy and encourage an efficient driving style.
There is also a free 10-year telematics package that provides online reporting of fuel economy and driver performance. The vehicle has 507,000km on the clock and according to the dealer is in excellent condition for its age.
West Pennine Trucks used sales manager Stuart Wolstenholme said: “The truck comes from a well-respected haulage, storage and distribution company based on the Shropshire/Powys border and has exceptionally low mileage, Scania service history and only one driver from new.
“With its 3.1m long-wheelbase and rear lifting tag-axle, this powerful tractor unit is ideal for applications where excellent traction, manoeuvrability and stability are desired such as low loader, tanker and timber haulage.”
The truck is currently at the dealer’s Trafford Park, Manchester site but can be supplied via any of its other depots: Knighton, Oswestry, Middleton, Stoke-on-Trent or Telford. It is available for £245 per week through Scania Finance.
Wolstenholme said: “It will be delivered with the cab repainted to a colour of the customer’s choice, fully serviced and with a driveline warranty included. West Pennine also offers service or R&M contracts for full peace of mind.”
