South Wales-based haulier John Pearce Glynneath, has taken delivery of a pair of New Generation DAF XFs 480 FTG 6x2s. Both have been specified with DAFs optional Digital Cameras System, which replaces the main and wide-angle mirrors.
“We’ve been buying DAF since the 1970s and we have a long-standing relationship with the dealership,” said John Pearce Glynneath’s MD Clive Davies (pictured). “DAF is our preferred manufacturer because they’re always fantastic for reliability and the service from the dealership is outstanding.
“We’ve not long taken delivery of the new XFs but on first impressions we’re really pleased with them. The cab itself is a big improvement in terms of visibility with the lower dashboard, bigger windows, and camera systems helping the drivers out. Liveried up, they look fantastic. DAF has done a great job with the overall design.”
The trucks, which were supplied by Watts Truck & Van of Swansea, will be used to pull curtain-sided trailers in the UK and on the continent.
