Due to increased business demand, Aberdeenshire-based haulage specialist, GIF Transport and Logistics Ltd, has added the first ever Renault Trucks to its 14-strong fleet. 

The new T520 Highs will be predominantly running for clients in the oil and gas industry in Scotland as well as international work across Europe. GIF Transport and Logistics’ Director, Brian Pirie, explains why he opted for a new brand on the company’s fleet: “The bulk of our fleet is with a competitor manufacturer, but I know the salesman at Renault Trucks Scotland, Keith Johnston, and he’s been knocking on my door for a few years trying to persuade me to try the Renault Trucks.  Due to an increase in demand for our services we are getting busier, so the time was right to add two new vehicles.”

The T520 Highs have been supplied on a five-year Renault Trucks “Excellence” Repair and Maintenance package providing full cover and the most extensive R&M contract on offer ensuring the vehicles are maintained to an outstanding condition with genuine Renault Trucks parts. All work will be carried out by Renault Trucks approved dealer, Alex Aiken in Aberdeen.

Brian concludes: “Introducing a new vehicle manufacturer into the fleet is always a slightly apprehensive time and although it’s still early days, we are very impressed; the driver is very happy and the fuel consumption is good so far.”
