Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

MAN dealers, Borderman Trucks Ltd, have supplied the first MAN16.280 tractive unit to go into serviCe in the UK. It will be used by owner/driver K. Stalker, of Penrith, for long-distance work carrying slag, coke and lime.

The turbocharged 11 litre (671cuin) engine develops 209kW (280bhp) at 2,200rpm with a maximum torque of 1,030Nm (7601bft) at 1,500rpm.

First shown in prototype form at Earls Court, last year, the turbocharged 44-tonne (43.3 ton)MAN has been available to customers for the last two months.

Power is transmitted to the MAN hub reduction through a 420mm (16.5in) single-dry-plate clutch and a 13-speed Fuller gearbox.
