RENAULT is to increase its Trafic and Master light commercial vehicle range.
The Trafic line up now includes long wheelbased versions of the T1000 and high-roof long wheelbased T1200's. Both models are equipped with a 1,650cc petrol or 2,100cc diesel engine.
LWB versions of the Master T35 and T35D can be supplied with a high-roof option or in platform-cab form.
A five-speed gearbox is specified in all Trafic and Master models except the lightest T800 with a 1,400cc engine. Other Trafic petrol models have a 1,650cc unit while diesel vans are fitted with 2,500cc engines.
Larger 2,500cc and 2,000cc engines are specified for respective diesel and petrol Master vans with a five-speed gearbox standardised for all models.
All 1984 models include laminated windscreen, reclinable back support on the driver's seat with optional glazed full-sized steel bulkhead, fixed duel passenger seat and a stabilising bar on all chassis cabs. Prices range from £4,442 to £7,249. Trafic and Master claim a 3.9 per cent market penetration with registration exceeding 3,300. SCOTTORN Trailers has launched a small trailer — the Mini Skip — for use in confined spaces such as underground car parks and narrow alleyways or any confined space where conventional size vehicles are unable to manoeuvre.
Designed for use behind a Land Rover the Mini-Skip uses Land Rover wheels and tyres to maintain interchangeability.
With a load capacity of two tonnes (including the weights of the skips) the Mini-Skip measures 3,590mx2,040mx1,950m (lift 9inx6ft 8inx6ft Sin).
