Clugston International connects international operators with exceptional used MAN trucks sourced from Britain’s rigorous commercial vehicle market. Our twenty-year track record in commercial vehicle exports stems from understanding what makes German engineering truly valuable: the combination of robust design philosophy with Britain’s demanding maintenance standards creates trucks that consistently outperform expectations in challenging international environments.
Unlike many export dealers who focus purely on price, we recognise that professional operators require vehicles with documented service histories and predictable remaining operational life. Britain’s comprehensive O-licence system and annual MOT testing regime produces MAN trucks with maintenance standards that frequently exceed those found elsewhere, giving our international customers genuine operational advantages from day one.
British commercial vehicle operators work within one of the world’s most regulated environments. Fleet managers maintaining Transport Manager CPC qualifications must demonstrate systematic vehicle care, whilst annual safety inspections ensure every component meets stringent standards. This regulatory framework creates used MAN trucks with comprehensive service documentation – something increasingly valuable as vehicle complexity continues advancing.
The practical benefit becomes apparent when comparing breakdown frequencies. Our customers regularly report that UK-sourced MAN trucks demonstrate superior reliability compared to vehicles sourced from less regulated markets, often achieving 20-30% longer service intervals whilst maintaining operational efficiency.
For operators in left-hand traffic systems across Africa, the Caribbean, and Asia-Pacific regions, RHD configuration provides immediate safety and efficiency benefits. Driver positioning optimises visibility for local road conditions whilst eliminating the adaptation period required with converted LHD vehicles.
This familiarity proves particularly valuable during urban delivery operations where precise positioning matters. Operators report measurably improved fuel economy and reduced minor accident rates when switching from adapted LHD trucks to proper RHD specifications.
MAN’s engineering approach emphasises component longevity and modular design – characteristics that align perfectly with British fleet operators’ preference for systematic maintenance over reactive repairs. This philosophical alignment creates vehicles where German durability combines with British maintenance precision.
The modular component strategy proves especially valuable in international markets where parts availability can challenge fleet operations. MAN’s standardised approach across model ranges simplifies inventory requirements whilst the global dealer network ensures component availability.
We currently hold three matching MAN TGM26.340 fuel tankers presenting a rare opportunity for petroleum distribution companies seeking fleet consistency with proven specifications:

These vehicles represent exceptional value for international petroleum distributors, particularly in African and Caribbean markets where German engineering reliability proves essential for profitable operations.
The TGM range represents MAN’s most adaptable platform, equally capable of urban distribution and specialist transport applications. Available in 12-tonne through 26-tonne configurations, TGM models balance payload capacity with operational flexibility.
Our experience suggests TGM18 and TGM26 specifications prove most popular with international buyers, offering substantial capacity whilst maintaining manoeuvrability essential for diverse operating conditions. Euro 6 compliance across 2013-onwards models positions these trucks advantageously as environmental regulations strengthen globally.
For demanding construction and heavy-duty applications, TGS models provide uncompromising strength through robust chassis design and enhanced component specifications. The 6×4 and 6×6 configurations particularly suit operators working in challenging terrain where durability justifies the specification premium.
TGS models demonstrate exceptional value in markets with developing infrastructure, where enhanced component strength and payload capacity often determine operational success versus costly breakdowns.
Designed for international haulage and premium distribution, TGX models feature advanced aerodynamics and sophisticated comfort systems. The combination of fuel efficiency improvements and reduced driver fatigue makes these specifications particularly suitable for long-distance operations.
Recent TGX models with Euro 6 technology typically achieve 8-12% better fuel consumption compared to older alternatives – significant for high-mileage operations common in international transport.
For operators facing size restrictions in congested urban centres, TGL models provide maximum commercial capability within compact dimensions. The 7.5-tonne variants often remain operable on standard driving licences, whilst larger specifications offer enhanced payload without sacrificing manoeuvrability.
Twenty years of African exports has taught us which specifications work reliably in challenging conditions. South African operators particularly value MAN’s combination of robust construction with reasonable operating costs, whilst East African markets including Tanzania and Zambia show growing preference for Euro 6 compliance as regulations develop.
The comprehensive MAN dealer network throughout Africa ensures parts availability, whilst the trucks’ proven ability to handle everything from coastal humidity to highland mining conditions makes them particularly suitable for diverse African operations.
Caribbean operators face unique challenges combining urban delivery requirements with challenging terrain and aggressive environmental conditions. Jamaica’s diverse geography from Kingston’s congested streets to mountainous interior routes demands versatility that MAN engineering consistently delivers.
The humid climate and salt exposure test vehicle systems extensively, making German component quality particularly valuable for operators seeking predictable maintenance costs in tropical conditions.
Malaysia, Thailand, and similar growth markets increasingly favour Euro 6 compliance as environmental standards strengthen. The sophisticated emissions control systems common across recent MAN models meet current requirements whilst providing compatibility with emerging regulations.
Urban congestion throughout the region makes manoeuvrability crucial, where MAN’s rear-steer configurations and compact dimensions provide measurable operational advantages during urban delivery operations.
Beyond current stock, we maintain extensive networks throughout Britain’s commercial vehicle industry. Major fleet disposals, lease return programmes, and authorised dealer stock provide access to specific MAN configurations meeting particular operational requirements.
Our sourcing capability covers everything from single vehicle requirements to substantial fleet acquisitions, with specification matching based on operational demands and local regulatory requirements.
Professional export services streamline international MAN truck acquisition through established procedures:
Regular shipping schedules to Africa, Caribbean, and Asia-Pacific regions ensure predictable delivery timescales for fleet planning purposes.
UK-sourced MAN trucks typically provide superior total cost of ownership through several measurable factors. Competitive acquisition costs from favourable market conditions combine with comprehensive service documentation to reduce uncertainty about vehicle condition and maintenance requirements.
The proven reliability records from demanding UK operating conditions minimise unexpected downtime, whilst global parts availability through MAN’s dealer network ensures predictable ongoing costs.
MAN engines consistently deliver competitive consumption across all model ranges. TGM specifications typically achieve 28-34 litres per 100 kilometres under normal loading, whilst advanced engine management systems provide ongoing operational cost benefits.
Euro 6 technology delivers measurable efficiency improvements over older alternatives – typically 8-12% better consumption for high-mileage operations common in commercial transport.
Euro 6 compliance across recent inventory positions these vehicles advantageously as international environmental regulations continue developing. The sophisticated emissions control systems meet current requirements whilst providing operational compatibility with emerging standards.
This regulatory positioning protects against premature obsolescence whilst supporting corporate environmental objectives increasingly important for commercial operators working under international oversight.
MAN’s worldwide dealer network ensures comprehensive parts availability and technical support across target export markets. Authorised service centres provide genuine components, technical diagnostics, and trained technicians familiar with specific model requirements.
This manufacturer backing proves invaluable for fleet operators requiring consistent uptime and predictable maintenance costs in challenging commercial environments.
MAN’s component approach across model ranges simplifies parts inventory whilst reducing service complexity. The global distribution network ensures availability supporting fleet operators’ maintenance planning requirements.
