The 20 new TGX 26.440 6x2 BLS artics come as both fleet additions and replacements, and join 50 further MANs within the company's total container fleet of 460. Three year full R&M contracts are also included in the acquisition package. Martime says fuel economy "...remains the decisive factor when selecting new trucks, and, in this respect, MAN remains integral to Maritime's buying policy." Indeed as Fleet Director, Derek Daly, tells Biglorryblog: "We found MAN's EGR 'Add Nothing' solution to Euro 4 has provided comparable fuel efficiency with our SCR trucks - and that's before we've factored in the AdBlue costs, so we're very pleased." Derek goes on to say: "I now consider MAN as providers of the best aftersales support in the industry. We have 10 sites around the UK, and MAN has demonstrated a coherent and a consistently high level support strategy in each location. Such a 'joined-up' approach instils great confidence. We buy many of our new trucks outright----and here, again, MAN provides great value for money in terms of residuals." So one happy customer by all accounts...
