Leven-based Andrew Cook Group has recently added two new MAN trucks to its specialised multifaceted fleet.
The new vehicles, in the form of a TGM 4×2 and a TGS 8×4, are the most recent MAN trucks to join the instantly recognisable 127-year-old family business.
In keeping with the business roots, each of the vehicles is painted in the traditional Andrew Cook livery, featuring green cabs and bodies with gold lettering and a black chassis.
Zander Cook, Director, Andrew Cook Group, said of the new vehicles, said: “We’ve operated a 32 tonne TGS 8×4 within the fleet for a few years now and have found it both robust and reliable. The last vehicle was with us for five years, so when looking for a replacement, we reflected and once again turned to MAN.
“Due to our positive experience with the TGS and the excellent service and support we’ve received from MAN Truck & Bus in Fife, we’ve also added a new 18 tonne TGM which is the first MAN skiploader to join our fleet. It’s early days, but from what we’ve seen so far, the new skiploader is settling in well, it’s both popular with the drivers, who report on its relaxed drive, and is providing outstanding productivity.”
Andrew Cook Group’s new TGS 8×4 35.440, rated at 32 tonnes GVW, is powered by MAN’s latest generation 12.4 litre, Euro VI OBD-E D26 engine, producing 440 PS (316 kW), which is connected to a silky smooth 12-speed MAN TipMatic® automated gearbox, featuring advanced efficiency and specialist off-road transmission software.
