ALEX MCARA:
The website does not need updated this is the vehicle combination that this person uses.
As Alex pointed out, that is my current vehicle and it is a perfectly serviceable machine, never breaking down in the whole time I have owned it.
Yes, it is a 14 year old, 12 ton, 8 speed with a dual brake for safety. It also comes with a matching drawbar trailer. A far better, comfier drive than some vehicles I have driven. It is leading a fairly pampered life right now, what with getting lots of new stuff fitted and will be getting a full cab and chassis respray in the near future.
On the gear box side, I have met many new drivers that passed in an auto and then got a job driving a 3/3 with half gears and just could not drive efficiently. They never knew what gear was the best to move off in, couldn’t change down to a correct gear going up hill or they didn’t know what the half gears were for, etc. On a similar note, I have met many that do not know how best to utilise an auto box. Swings and roundabouts.
We are a small family owned company (me and the mother) doing cars, car and trailer and HGV. As well as all the training, I was runner up in the UK finals of Scanias Young European Truck Driver comp in 2014/15.
Please skip this bit Alex I will be doing my pcv soon, so will be able to offer that in the middle of next year.
Ps, my website does need updating but only because we have a different car and trailer.
Pps this just happens to be the first time on hear for a long, long time, hence a reply.
Edit
If you read this and haven’t already completed your training, I am happy to offer a free assessment and more than happy to give you some hints, tips etc.
Also, if its the company I think it is, yes, they went bust.
