Westbrook adds 65-tonne Renault T520 High to fleet

Westbrook Commercials Ltd, based in Wiltshire, has added a 65-tonne Renault T520 High 6×2 tag to its low loader fleet with a further T520 High 6×2 midlift due in April.

The company’s existing fleet of eight low loaders are all plated between 60-80 tonnes and the newT520 High will be used primarily to move new excavators around the UK for construction machinery manufacturer, SANY.

Westbrook Commercials’ Director, David Johnson explains why word-of-mouth recommendations were key in selecting Renault Trucks and Sparks Commercial Services. “We had some Magnums back in 2012 so we were familiar with the brand and, we were hearing good reports from other local operators about the service at Sparks Commercials who are conveniently located just up the M4 from us in Swindon. We’re also hearing good things about the vehicles; we know people that have bought Renault Trucks recently and they are very happy with the performance.”

David continues: “The deal on the table and the overall customer service we received from the salesman, Roger Millett, was second-to-none. Roger took the time to listen to our requirements, was meticulous and changed things to ensure it was right for us. He has been brilliant; a proper salesman!”

The T520 High is fitted with the Optidriver AT 2612F gearbox reinforced for heavy duty use (XTREM) with automatic clutch and OPTIBRAKE+ with Voith Gearbox hydraulic retarder.

As the driver is away 4-5 nights each week the truck’s high sleeper cab includes optional extras including heated driver’s seat, microwave, television, air conditioning, multimedia touchscreen, air suspension and one-touch electric windows.

“Our trucks need to be reliable and capable of delivering our customer’s machines on time so, in turn, they can get to work on their customer’s tough construction projects. We are pleased with the new vehicle and delighted we made the switch to Renault Trucks,” concludes David
