North West Trucks opens new DAF dealership in Warrington

The latest addition to DAF dealership group North West Trucks’ portfolio is a state-of-the-art site in Warrington.

Its new site's facilities includes vehicle inspection, servicing, tachograph calibration, MoT preparation, dedicated bays with DAVIE diagnostics, air-conditioning re-gassing and brake testing facilities to meet new DVSA regulations.

Peter Brabin, depot manager for North West Trucks Warrington said: “We understand the importance of providing quality service to operators in the local area and our new site will allow us to do exactly that. Our additional dealership is strategically located just off the M62 and M6 motorways, which will become a centre for aftersales and maintenance opening six days a week offering a seamless one-stop-shop service ensuring we can meet the demands of every commercial vehicle operator.”

The dealership’s opening event was attended by customers, suppliers and stakeholders from across North West Trucks, Greenhous Group and DAF Trucks, as well as English rugby league player Paul Sculthorpe MBE. The site was declared open with a ribbon cutting ceremony accompanied by presentations, talks and tours of the facilities. This gave attendees a chance to look at the New Generation DAF XF, XG and XG+ trucks, and DAF’s electric range. The New Generation trucks, which have been crowned International Truck of the Year in 2022 and 2023, take advantage of the new European masses and dimensions regulations to maximise cabin space, aerodynamics and efficiency. 

Following the opening, Brabin said: “It was wonderful to celebrate this special occasion with so many colleagues, customers and business partners. The doors are open at Warrington and we can’t wait to welcome customers new and old for many years to come.”

The DAF dealership group was founded in 1899 and caters to customers in the North West through its sites in Huyton, Northwich, Wigan and Ellesmere Port.
