One utilises an eight-cylinder Gardner 8LXB while the other uses Cummins power—the NHC 250. The wheelbase of the tractive units is 3.0m (9ft 10in). 10in).. The third vehicle is a threeaxle tipper powered by a 6LXB Gardner engine with David Brown six-speed gearbox and Kirkstall double-drive rear axles. This is the first public show appearance for the BSeries six-wheeler.
All the B-Series models feature the new cab design Which employs hot-pressmoulded glassfibre panels over a welded steel frame.
