Commercial Motor’s used truck deal of the day is this 160-tonne MAN TGX 580 8x4 tractor unit, from FleetEx Global Vehicle Sales near Ellistown, with only 165,964km on the clock.
On the market for £79,500, this MAN uses a Euro-6 turbocharged engine coupled to a 12-speed ZF automatic gearbox. Differential and cross locks, a retarder and a 9-tonne front axle enables the TGX to move substantial items, like plant equipment, with ease.
One of Jost’s sliding fifth wheels has been mounted to the chassis, while a single vertical exhaust sits behind the TGX’s sleeper cab. An air deflector kit features here too, as does a roof-mounted top four-light bar, amber beacons and air horns.
Inside, there’s a night heater, access to an electric sunroof, digital climate control, a radio and sat-nav. MAN’s BrakeMatic emergency braking and cruise control are also included. When purchased the vehicle will come with a new MoT and FleetEx is willing to help with delivery.
