Leven, Fife-based Andrew Cook Group has added a new MAN TGM 4x2 and a TGS 8x4 to its specialised fleet.

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: “We’ve operated a 32-tonne TGS 8x4 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.”

He added: “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.”
