Empangeni based, Lee’s Breakdown, has been in the towing industry for many years and always purchased used vehicles. Jay Reddy, owner of Powerstar Empangeni, assisted with providing a demo vehicle for them to test. A week later, a brand new FT5 was added to their fleet. Leon Lee Pillay, owner of Lee’s Breakdown, was impressed with the reliability, affordability and low fuel consumption and without hesitation decided to purchase the FT5. “Powerstar is a reputable brand which made my buying decision easier.” adds Leon. “The FT5 is well suited for my haulages between KZN & Gauteng. The interior is comfortable and fitted with the essentials for a long drive. I also have peace of mind my truck has full after-sales back-up across the areas my vehicle will be traveling.” concludes Leon.

CPMS a construction company based in Ballito, is focused on project management and urban planning. After considering similar brands and sizes in its category, Sales Executive, Powerstar Empangeni, Lukas Meyer, placed a FT3 demo vehicle in their fleet. Within a few days of testing, CPMS owner Pooballa Naidoo decided the Powerstar FT3 was without a doubt the best vehicle for their company’s needs. “The size of the truck was perfect fit as it is not too big to get into the restricted urban developments and the payload big enough to transport enough materials at a time." says Pooballa. “Add to that the price and combination of the Cummins Engine, ZF Gearbox, Wabco Air Brake system and all the extras such as Aircon, Cruise Control & Radio there was no better option.”

Unyazi Transport Coastal, a subsidiary Group of MSC, have just added 20 x Powerstar VX 2642 Truck Tractors to their fleet. Although they own other brands, they chose the Powerstar range for their reliability for medium and short haul operations.

“He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother” takes on a whole new meaning as brothers Paul and Mike Zimu of Dreads Construction add yet another VX4035 Tipper to their growing Powerstar family. They both value Powerstar’s good reputation with other owners, the affordability and the brand’s commitment to go the extra mile.

Sales Manager, Marc Mynhardt, proudly handed over a VX2628B 6m3 Mixer to Aventino Group in Polokwane recently, to deliver concrete within the surrounding areas. This is their second Powerstar, now joining a VX2642 they purchased last year to pull a flat deck trailer with a crane fitted for transporting bricks. They are excited to be partnered up with Powerstar again and in the future.

According to Leonardo da Vinci, “Water is the driving force of all nature.” We tend to agree, but that water has to get to where it’s needed first! Oupa Rhayi, owner of Divestec Mining, has just added this second VX2628 LWB 16,000 liter dual-purpose water tanker to his current fleet of 4 Powerstars. These trucks are working all over, such as Glencore Mines in Ogies, Mpumalanga.

Umesh Singh from Ballito, recently purchased his family-owned logistics company their very first Powerstar truck from Sales Executive, Wesley Keenan. This is their first Powerstar and after a fantastic service with a quality product, they are looking to slowly replace several trucks with Powerstar.

Powerstar Empangeni salesman, Lukas Meyer, recently handed over a Powerstar FT to DSV Empangeni and Roadmaster. Both companies have been in business for over ten years and invested in the FT range . The added benefits of the extra standard features that come with the FT’s such as cruise control, radio and air conditioning made this an excellent offer overall, and couldn't be refused.
