LAST WEEK CHELSEA splashed out £50m on Spanish striker Fernando Torres, who then failed to score against his former team. It got Roadtransport. com’s blogger Laurie Dealer thinking: what could £50m buy a haulier?
Well, it could: ● Secure you 625 new Scania R420 6x2s tractors; ● Buy you 36.8m litres of diesel at the going rate (20% VAT). This time last year it would have got you 42.4m litres (17.5% VAT); ● Buy you 5,882 second-hand 2003registered Renault Premium 220 DCI 18-tonner, 28ft curtainsiders with 1.5-tonne tuck-away tail-lifts; ● Buy 2,500 Montracon trailers for Norbert Dentressangle Transport Services UK; ● Buy 20m issues of CM or, to put it another way, if you subscribe today you can get CM for the next 526,315 years. www.roadtransport.com/lauriedealer
