After deciding to move away from AdBlue and SCR, Aberdeen-based ARR Craib has taken delivery of 25 MAN TGA tractor units and has a further 18 on order for December and January. The haulier has also placed an order for eight MAN TGX units for delivery late next year.

The company ran a trial of EGR and SCR starting in April 2006 and MD George Craib says that as a result he "definitely wants to move away from AdBlue" and so has opted from MAN's EGR-engined tractors.

"We've always seen it as an unnecessary inconvenience and now our trials have proved that the MAN EGR engine is more economical too." ARR Craib has a 200-truck fleet which is predominantly Daf, but Craib says: "It's MAN that's now closing the gap."
