• The winners of the Commercial Motor's 1989 Testers' Choice awards were presented with their prizes last week at CM's Fleet Management Conference in Birmingham. The annual awards go to the vehicles which most impressed our roadtesting team.
The 38-tonne tractive unit category was the toughest to judge, but ERF's El° 32ST finally scooped the two-axle honours, and Scania's impressive R143 the three-axle honours.
ERF chairman Peter Foden and Scania marketing director David Michell accepted their prizes from Commercial Motor's publishing director Gavin Howe.
Leyland Daf sales director Ian Jones had a good day, appearing twice to take the 7.5-tonne category with the Roadrunner 8.15 and the multi-wheeler category with the 30:30 tipper. Seddoo Atkinson's fleet marketing manager Tom Bennett collected the 17-tonne accolade for the manufacturer's 2-11.
The lveco Ford Daily won our 4.5-tonne class: the company's chairman Dr Felice Cantarocco accepted the award with Ford's commercial vehicle sales operations director Dr John Hackworth taking our one-tonne pickup prize for his company's top-selling P100.
Bany Goodman of Renault UK accepted the panel van award for the Master T35.
