Rigid trucks to be auctioned include Toyota Dyna, Hino, Isuzu, Nissan and Volkswagen Constellation 15-180.

A collection of trailers will also go under the hammer. This stock comprises a large fleet of 2008 Afrit and Top Trailer Tautliner Link trailers, SA Truck Bodies, Henred Fruehauf side tippers and flat deck trailers.

LDVs on offer include a 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser 4.2, a 2012 Toyota Hilux 3.0 D4D, a 2010 Opel Corsa Utility 1.4, a Hyundai and Kia Nissan.

Park Village Auctions’ LeRoy Augustyn says the company’s truck and yellow metal sales continue to be “superbly” supported.

“Buyers are playing it safe, particularly as the rand and business sentiment continues to take a beating. That, and the fact that we offer quality assets across the board are buoying up demand at our auctions.

“Clearly buyers are finding real value in our inventory right now and it’s a trend we expect to last for some time to come,” Augustyn says.
