Autohaus Truck and Bus stand by their MAN

Yochanaan Coetzee - MAN Trucks are reknowned for their style, quality and reliability, especially in the European market where they have been the go-to trucking brand for a number of years.

Being wellknown, however, also resulted in the preception that they are the pricier option when looking at long-haul transportation.

This has now changed and more and more people are realising how much value they actually receive when buying a MAN truck.

This is thanks to a complete package consisting not only of greatly competive pricing, immaculate specification levels, class-leading fuel consumption and hard as nails reliablity, which are backed up with great add-ons like extended factory service and maintainance plans.

“These add-ons just go to show the level of confidence we have in our trucks and their reliability,” said Ernest Thatcher, of Autohaus Truck and Bus, recently.

“We’ve dedicated vast resources to research and development, and this has not only paid off in terms of design, efficency and ergonomics, but we’ve managed to build on the extreme reliability our trucks are known for, and as a result, we can now offer some of the longest and most comprehensive full truck factory warranties in our segment,” he explained.

Range

In terms of the larger trucks, they now offer a three-year/450 000 km warranty and a four-year/600 000km driveline warranty. On their smaller trucks, they offer a one-year/unlimited mileage and three-year/300 000km driveline warranties, for ultimate peace of mind.

“We also have a large service and support network throughout the country and even our warranties and roadside support services are valid all across sub-Equatorial Africa. Meaning, that if you encounter issues within any of these states, not only will you be happily assisted by our mobile support teams, but the factory will cover the repair costs, subject to warranty approval,” Thatcher added.

“MAN is among the top three most competitive products in its segment, and this is thanks to us not only having an excellent product, but additional add-ons like our two-year factory gaureentee on MAN genuine parts and the unwavering support from the factory that helps us stand out from the crowd.”

So whether you’re in the transport, distribution or long-haul trucking industries, your cost per kilometre is the ultimate yardstick of your operational efficency and the deciding factor in your business’ longterm success.

Campaign

Currently, Autohaus Truck and Bus is running a campaign where they offer clients complimentary add-ons, such as a bull bar, stone guard and a full year’s worth of vehicle tracking, on top of a serious discount off the normal retail price of your vehicle.

“All these add-ons make for a really appealing and secure investment, but what makes it all that much better is the fact that we also offer gaureenteed buy-backs directly from the factory.

“So you can now invest in a package that can accommodate periodic vehicle rotation or upgrades, using the very competitive return on original investment, be it for trade or buy-back options,” Thatcher added.

With such value-packed offerings, bulletproof machines and a vastly suprerior after-sales support, there’s no doubt that MAN trucks were made with the customer’s needs, peace of mind and peace of pocket.
