Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

WHAT ARE believed to be the largest-ever non-hgv Luton vans have just been added to the fleet of an Oldham haulier.

Target Transport has taken delivery of two Saviem JN75based Luton vans, each having a plated weight of 7.38 tons gvw, allowing them to be driven by non-hgv drivers.

To achieve this, each van has a de-rated Saviem JP11 chassis with a wheelbase and chassis extension by Shortex of Chester and a body by Ken Rosebury of Rochdale.

This gives an overall length of 10.5 metres (34ft Gins) and a capacity of 61cum (2155cuft). Consequently the vehicles have the combination of power and capacity required by Target for its main business of hauling foam for the furniture and automotive industries throughout the UK and to the Continent.
