Go big on truck fleets this month

● Park Village Auctions is gearing up for a remarkable commercial vehicle sale this month.

That’s the word from PVA’s Natashia Goosen, who says that fleet managers typically welcome the chance to acquire affordable and reliable used vehicles stemming from genuine bank repossessions and liquidations.

“All manner of logistics and earth-moving operators are in for a treat. The banks have commissioned a bevvy of high-quality vehicles, which include fleets of MAN TGS 26480 and 27-480, SA Truck Bodies side tippers, and Isuzu KB250 D-Max LDVs,” says Goosen.

Under the banner of truck tractors, a fleet of MAN TGS 26-480 and 27-480 followed by a Scania G460, UD Quon GW 26-490, an Iveco Stralis 480, a Freightliner Argosy 90, International and Mercedes-Benz Actros will be first on the block.

Rigid trucks will include an FAW 15-180, a 2008 Tata 2523 rollback, a Mercedes-Benz 1617, a Hino 700 and 300, a Nissan UD40, as well as a selection from Mitsubishi, Isuzu NPR 400 and FTR 480, Powerstar 2628 and Toyota Dyna.

A fleet of 2014 SA Truck Bodies side tippers, an Afrit side tipper, Paramount, Henred Fruehauf, Kearny’s, Roadhog and Top Trailers make up the trailer stock of the day.

Other noteworthy lots include a fleet of 2019 Isuzu KB250 D-Max LDVs, a 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser 4.5 SUV, a Hyundai H100, an Iveco panel van, Hyster forklifts, a Wright 356 LHD blasting machine and Caterpillar 226B skidsteers.

In light of the diverse range of vehicles on offer, Goosen encourages interested buyers to attend the vehicle preview held the day before the auction on Wednesday, November 4, from 9am to 4pm.

The sale will take place on site at gate 2 of the Nasrec showgrounds, number 1 Nasrec Road, Gauteng, on Thursday, November 5, at 10.30am.

Due to Covid-19 safety protocols, maskwearing is mandatory. Also in line with pandemic protocols, attendance will be limited — so early registration is vital.
