The first Hyundai HX140 L T
racked Excavator to be signed, sealed & delivered in the UK was sold by Taylor & Braithwaite Ltd and received by Mayson Bros Ltd, Egremont.
The machine was swiftly put to work on the flood defence project in Glenridding, Lake District – an area devastated by Storm Desmond last year.
The 14 -tonne machine provides up to 10 percent better fuel economy and like other models in the HX series, the Hyundai HX140 L excavator comes packed with high-end features.
Having already purchased a Hyundai R25Z-9A and a Hyundai R80CR-9A within the last 30 months Gary Mayson, Mayson Bros Managing Director said “Having been very pleased with my previous Hyundai machines, I was delighted to purchase the Hyundai HX140 L”. Gary went on to say “I have always found Taylor & Braithwaite a very friendly company to deal with, and I am very happy with the service that they provide”.
The new machine is helping support Mayson Bros with the flood repair work that they are undertaking in conjunction with the Environment Agency. Specifically, taking out the old wall in the village of Glenridding and creating a flood wall – work very worthy of a machine with enhanced reliability features and durability, I’m sure you’d agree.
