RENAULT is now offering a sleeper cab version of its new 16-tons gvw chassis cab, the GF151.
The new cab can be . specified on the 4.7m and 5.7m wheelbase models but is not available on the short wheelbase (3.6m) chassis. Virtually identical to the cab of the recently-introduced TF231 sleeper (32 tons gcw), it has a good-sized single bunk with pillow and is fully trimmed. All-round curtaining provides complete privacy.
The cab may be tilted for servicing and is counterbalanced for one-man operation. Daily checks can be carried out without tilting the cab, however. Kerb weight of the GF151 sleeper, including 44 gallons of fuel, spare wheel and carrier, is given as 4816 kg for the 4.7m wheelbase and 4935 kg at 5.7m.
Powered by Renault's 6cylinder turbocharged engine which develops 146 bhp (net) and 321 lb/ft of torque, the two GF151 sleeper models are listed at £15,970 and £16,080 respectively.
