• A 15-tonne M1518, due to be UK Type Approved next spring, is one of five trucks on display on AWD's stand at this week's Quarry Management show in Hillhead quarry near Buxton, Derbyshire.
The M1518 is part of a range from 12 to 15 tonnes. It has a 134kW (180hp) Perkins Phaser engine. The series replaces the previous AWD M-type, which weighs in at 11 tonnes and comes with 75-101kW (100135hp) Bedford engines.
It is designed for municipal and utility use, and 30 have already been exported. Other manufacturers at the Hillhead show — which is aimed at the construction industry — include Scania, Mercedes and ERF.
