• Kienzle tachographs are to be marketed in the UK by a new company, Lucas Kienzle Instruments Ltd., set up jointly by Joseph Lucas (Sales and Service) Ltd. and Kienzle Apparate GmbH, of West Germany. The chairman will be Herr bipi.-Ing. Herbert Kienzle, joint managing director of Kienzle Apparate and the director and general man ager will be Mr. Fred Kay.
Lucas Kienzle says its objects are the marketing and servicing of tachographs, both for fitment on existing vehicles and as original equipment on British vehicles. It is also prepared to advise operators on the relevance of the tachograph to their fleets. "It would be much better to sell to a willing public", said Mr. Kay this week, "than have it imposed on operators by legislation."
The tachograph heads cost between £40 and £44, according to the model. Installation, accessories and fitting charges cost between £15 and £35.
