Enterprise has ordered two transporters to carry luxury cars from its Exotic Car Collection.
The trucks are Daf 55 LF180 rigids, fitted with Roger Dyson Hydraloader SLA 5000 transporter bodies. They will be used to deliver Enterprise’s collection of high-end rental vehicles from a branch at Heathrow airport.
The 12-tonners have a load capacity of 5 tonnes, overall length of 10m and width of 2.26m.
Enterprise specified the trucks because of their width, which is suitable for high-end car brands. The tilt and slide design enables the whole of the deck area to slide off the back of the chassis and sit almost level with the ground. This makes loading easier as it lessens or negates the angle of approach for the driver to negotiate when loading or unloading a luxury car.
Enterprise MD Danny Glynn said: “We had to ensure we could fit the complete range through the opening on the roller door.”
