Wright is MD of Commercial Vehicle Auctions. OVA holds sales at Doncaster on two Wednesdays each month with a throughput of 160 to 200 trucks, 80-150 trailers and various items of plant. Wright also conducts sales around the country at customers' premises.
"We have seen a few ifs," he says. "But they are not coming through In any great numbers yet. We will expect to see more of them at auction next year as three-year contracts come to an end with some of the big companies.
"Oaf is riding high at the moment with new models right the way through the range. The base IF model has the fourcylinder 130hp engine, which would have satisfied most oper
ators a few years ago, but the transition In power seems relentless and the 150hp engine Is the one that will be most In demand. Today, operators are much more discerning In their choice of engine. The last one we sold was a Y-rag 130hp model with a curtainsided body and it fetched .£12,750. That is about £750 over book price.
In the used truck market, the Lf's modern cab could give Daf a lead over the EuroCarge which still has the old cab and is only now being updated by Ivaco."
