WEST OF SCOTLAND GROUP BUY FIRST ALL-NEW VOLVO Bought from Volvo Truck and Bus Centre Scotland at Glasgow East (Hamilton), the truck was chosen on the basis of the company’s experience with a Used Volvo. ''The support we got from Volvo with the used truck was almost second-to-none,'' explains West of Scotland Director Jimmy Campbell. ''The back-up was excellent and I’m comfortable with the product. Enough to go ahead and buy a new truck to join our fleet.'' The 8x4 artic has been converted from a 6x4 by North East Truck & Van who also fitted the George Fischer sliding fifth wheel. West of Scotland Group have specified the truck with a Globetrotter XL cab in ‘Prestige’ trim with full leather trim and seats, fridge, microwave and CD/radio player. Plated at 150 tonnes GCW, the truck also has a 14-speed Volvo manual gearbox and twin exhausts. Based at the company’s Coatbridge headquarters, the FH16 will operate all across the UK with a variety of modular lowloader trailers transporting contractor’s plant equipment and wind turbines for wind farms.
