In what is said to be one of 2013’s biggest articulated truck deals in the UK, L-Lynch Plant Hire has purchased 12 3652 Terex TA300s as part of the company’s £12 million (€14 million) investment in new equipment. The trucks were sold by Terex UK distributor, TDL Equipment, and will be used by Lynch’s customers on mainly civil and tunnelling projects.

Having previously purchased six Generation 9 Terex trucks in 2011 and several Generation 7 in 2007,  2008, and 2009, Merrill Lynch, Lynch’s operations director, says the strengthening of his plant fleet fits with the company’s goal of becoming the number one plant hire service provider in the UK.  

“Over the past year, we’ve been pleased to hear feedback that, since the trucks changed to Generation 9 and Tier 4i, many of them have seen an impressive fuel saving,” says Lynch.

Cameron Watson, managing director of TDL Equipment, said: “We’re delighted that Lynch has returned to us to help strengthen its fleet and the deal is testament to our belief that good service and response, coupled with a reliable product, are key to customer retention and new sales.”

Paul Douglas, general manager of Terex in Motherwell, Scotland, where the trucks are manufactured, said: “We are delighted to have this opportunity to provide new 30tonne ADT trucks for Lynch and its end customers.”

Lynch’s Terex trucks have worked on large-scale UK projects over the past few years, including the London 2012 Olympics and major Crossrail developments in London.
