Cabstar, and Lt comes with much the same issues: tight seating position around the steering column, low driving position and little headroom. Urban, construction and multi-drop are the key markets.
The cab means the driver is right up against the door there are no door pockets, as you can imagine, allowing ample room for the 'crud passenger sat in the middle. And not many chassis-cab vans boast storage on the back wall.
Over in the quarry, the front axle suspension does bounce the driver, but on the road the experience is smooth.
You don't have to leave the cab to tip. The rear door is just about automatic, unclipping as the bed rises, and reattaching itself when the tipper body is horizontal again.
A six-speed transmission is probably one gear too many for its driveline, but it didn't hamper progression on the A-roads.
The box-style cab makes you believe the chassis is capable of hauling more than the 3.5-tonne GVW it is designed for, although the design leaves you feeling a little exposed to the oncoming elements as just centimetres separate you from the outside. KS
