Babcock is taking used DAF trucks to a brand new level with the recent launch of DAF Premium Select. Incorporated in Babcock’s used trucks division, DAF trucks are fully refurbished, certified and given the DAF seal of approval before getting a second lease on life in the pre-owned trucks market.
Only A-grade used DAF trucks make the cut after undergoing thorough mechanical and cosmetic inspections, full service history verification and roadworthiness tests. To qualify as a DAF Premium Select vehicle, trucks have to be less than five years old and have no more than 650 000 km on the clock.
Babcock has made it easier for customers to sell well maintained trucks back to Babcock through competitive buy-backs and trade-in deals on all makes of trucks. This enables owners to consistently upgrade and rotate their fleet whilst expanding their operation. Second economic line owners get peace of mind, knowing they are purchasing a superior quality DAF truck with an affordable price tag.
Conversely, new customers, including start-up businesses, are able to buy a reliable, superior-quality DAF truck at a price that suits their pockets.
DAF Premium Select customers have access to the same comprehensive aftermarket support from Babcock that comes standard with new DAF trucks. This includes tailor-made maintenance plans, 24-hour breakdown services and nationwide availability of workshops.
As part of the DAF Premium Select offering, Babcock also provides optional extras, such as financing solutions, 12-month warranties and tracker systems. Any vehicle defects not related to operator error or lack of maintenance are covered by Babcock for up to six months.
