  • With the advent of the new Euro6 emission standards in London we were forced to sell our older diesel trucks and vans. Spent the day at Europe's biggest industrial auction for industrial plant, construction equipment and agricultural machinery; Euro Auctions in Leeds, with estimated targets we were hoping to make money on all 8 construction vehicles:
    1. VW Transporter 9 Seater Mini Bus » £3,000
    2. 2013 Mini Club Van » £3,000
    3. 2010 Volvo 8x4 Tipper Lorry » £8,000
    4. 2007 Volvo 8x4 Grab Lorry » £18,000
    5. 2009 DAF 8x4 Grab Lorry » £18,500
    6. 2008 DAF 8x4 Tipper Lorry » £7,000
    7. 2007 Volvo 4x2 Skip Lorry » £5,000
    8. 2006 Volvo 4x2 Skip Lorry » £2,000

    I believe the lesson to be taken from this episode is that you should always sell general stuff, like vehicles that everyone can use in almost any kind of work or business, in auctions and you should sell the more specific vehicles for specific works in another platform, preferably not the auction where the buyers are buying to sell someone else and not use the vehicle.

Yeah some of the tech makes a better driving environment but the days of burring over a ball joint on a gear linkage to limp back are gone, now it's a van with a lad half the age of my licence equipped with a laptop and £30k manufacturer software package to clear codes until they appear again an hour or a month later.

Yes, you are right about the trucks that are no longer euro compliant, do end up abroad. I'm in Zambia and there's literally thousands of ex British trucks here and throughout Africa and as you said you skip Volvo did sell fir more because of simplicity of it. That's what Africa likes.

    I've been following these auctions for some time now. I had intentions of travelling to the UK to check it out in person and hopefully purchase something...but then Covid hit. Haven't followed the truck prices much, but I have noticed the prices on plant seem to be higher earlier in the year before the "season" starts. Closer to the end of the year (before winter) the prices have seemed a bit lower. Looking out for their next auction in September 2021. It was really nice to see this from a seller's perspective though. Wishing you all the best.

      also you need to watch out the political stuff happening in the background. When my city (stuttgart-germany) announced that no cars below EURO6 will be allowed within the city, many people panic sold their brand new diesel cars 70% below the actual price. That was on one hand sad and on other hand a blessing for everyone outside of stuttgart.

    It's about the volume of vehicles in an urban area, and it should be noted that other cities have introduced emissions controls, Bath and Birmingham for instance!
    London has a particularly difficult problem with a larger urban area and so many more people wanting to drive within that area.
    Obviously in sparsely populated rural areas there isn't such a build up of toxic fumes, but as we all know the country is aiming for zero tailpipe emissions.
    Daniel, do you think you'll see the first electric LGV on your fleet in the next 10 years?

    • @RandomShart
      @RandomShart 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Problem is that the worst thing for CO2 emissions is normally to throw away working vehicles to replace them with new ones. That's the trade off, cleaner air for higher CO2 emissions upfront. Best thing would be to tell people to keep what they have until it's no longer viable to repair it, then scrap it, then buy electric or hybrid.

      I think those cams should only be on rigid trucks.in an artic you need to be able to move your head to change the angle you are looking at as the trailer bends like say on a tight roundabout just leaning forward while looking in the mirror gives you a totally different angle/view of your trailer.They are also a danger at night as any car with led headlights passing makes them flicker.There is no perspective with screens what you see is what you get I can't even see how they are legal on an artic

      @@xB4UC sounds like a plan for sure. Might be a very lucrative one particularly if NZ hasn't got plans to align their emissions standards with Europe. Do you have a good dealer network for spare parts and service kits? That can be an issue if you have to keep importing parts or paying premium prices for European truck parts.

      There is a very good chance that the people who bought his trucks cheap.. are actually going to ship them over to countries were they sell for much more. Don't be surprised if your local truck dealerships ends up having one of Ashvilles trucks for sale on their lot ;)
