To promote its used truck programme, MAN-ERF auctioned a truck online at the CV Show — a late-year low-miler, complete with analogue tacho and Euro-3 driveline. Kevin Swallow reports.

To the best of our knowledge. no heavy commercial vehicle has been auctioned off eBay-style to the highest bidder. And it you've got a late-year, low-mileage truck complete with analogue tacho and Euro-3 engine, to sell, the chances are you won't need to. But it served as the ideal way for MAN-ERF to publicise its TopUsed approved used programme at the CV Show in Birmingham last month.

The auction for the truck, which was on the stand, continued throughout the show with punters bidding furiously throughout the three days. With seconds left on the clock on the final day, Stuart Davis put a winning bid of £40,100 for the 2005 model, He picked up the keys for the MAN TGA 26.433 6x2 Euro-3 tractor (with XXL cab,TipMatic gearbox, full service history and 250,000km on the clock) after the show

Strength in depth

Sales and marketing director Dave Cussans said the truck fetched a good price:"1'm also pleased because even more used truck operators now know the strength in depth of the MAN TopUsed portfolio. Our excellent website allows users to locate trucks to their exacting specifications, quickly and easily, and via their local MAN Top Used Centres." •
