About this machine

This 2011 DAF LF55.180 is a used box truck — sometimes referred to as a curtainsider alternative or, more commonly, a Luton-style rigid van body vehicle — offered for sale in the United Kingdom. Box trucks of this kind are rigid-bodied commercial vehicles designed for the secure, enclosed transport of goods, widely used in distribution, logistics, removals, and general haulage. DAF is a well-established Dutch commercial vehicle manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing reliable trucks and heavy goods vehicles serving freight and transport industries across Europe and beyond.

This example was registered in November 2011 and has had just two owners from new, suggesting a relatively controlled ownership history. At the time of listing it has covered 482,787 kilometres and holds an MOT valid to March 2024.

The truck is configured as a 4x2 day cab unit with an automatic gearbox, making it straightforward to operate and well suited to urban and regional distribution work. It is rated at 13 tonnes gross vehicle weight and sits on a 5.3-metre wheelbase. The body is a 25-foot GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) box, a durable and lightweight construction commonly chosen for its resistance to corrosion and damage.

Access to the body is notably versatile: there is a rear roller shutter door along with nearside and offside roller shutter doors, allowing loading and unloading from three sides — a practical advantage in busy depot environments or where kerbside access is restricted.

Driver comfort and operational features include cruise control, engine braking, an air kit, and spring suspension. The cab is also fitted with a CD player, radio, and auxiliary audio input. The combination of automatic transmission and engine brake makes this a practical and driver-friendly vehicle for mixed-route haulage.
