The TGL was launched back in 2006 as a replacement for the L200 and the LE. Most often seen as a 7.5 tonner, the TGL is available from 7 to 12 tonnes – at which point the TGM takes over. With a choice of two engines – the four cylinder 4.6-litre D0834 at 160, 190 and 220hp and the 6.9-litre 6-cylinder with 250hp available for use at 12 tonnes. There is a choice of four cabs – the C is the short and low day cab, the L offers a little more height and length. The LX is taller still, whilst the crew cab has the same low height as the L cab but much more room out back.
