YORKSHIRE BULK haulier Warcup Transport has taken delivery of six Euro-5 MAN TGX tractors in preparation for Euro-6 being introduced in 2014.
The Driffield-based operator — which holds two 0-licences to run a total of 51 vehicles and 46 trailers — will run MANs for the first time in its history.
The sixth unit is the 200th truck to be registered on the Warcup Transport fleet since company director Clive Warcup entered transport as an owner-driver in September 1970. Warcup said: "After suffering a few high repair costs on our other trucks, thanks to their AdBlue systems, we were keen to stay ahead of Euro-6 and stick with EGR engines. MAN became the obvious choice ahead of the 2014 deadline for Euro-6 trucks."
The 6x2 units have XLX cabs and five-year repair and maintenance contracts. They are also fitted with MAN telematics and EcoStyle driver performance monitoring systems.
