British independent specialist road-marking specialist WJ UK has put the UK’s first 18-tonne Volvo FL with factory-fitted Crew Cab into service.
The 5600 mm wheelbase 4x2 rigid FL model was spec’d with a D8K engine producing 280 bhp coupled to a six-speed manual transmission.
In addition to a rear engine-mounted live drive Power Take Off (PTO), an extra front mounted engine pulley provides drive for some of the bodywork accessories. The new arrival also features a 7.1-tonne front axle, large-capacity alternator and cab air conditioning.
