year in the whole of western Europe -most go to the power utilities which need a vehicle able to work on and off road situations in all weathers; usually bad. Ivecds latest answer is the Eurocargo 4x4 range, available at 10 and 14 tonnes GVW.
There are four basic models in the UK line-up: 10tonners with 5.9-litre tector engines rated at 180 or 210hp; and 14-tonners at 180 or 240hp. The choices are doubled with the option of single or double rear wheels. Transmission are six-speeders-a directdrive Iveco on the lower ratings with an Eaton overdrive unit on the 240.
As well as high-clearance parabolic suspension, the toughening up process includes a steel bumper with an integral step, a radiator guard and towing eye.
Driving off-road in a 240hp 14-tonner and on-road in a 210hp 10-tan ner revealed the 4x4's excellent suitability for this specialised role, Nothing in the off-road quarry came close to challenging its limits, and on the uphill road sections its 4.85:1 final drive allowed it to overtake the larger tippers between hairpin bends like they were going backwards.
