VOLKSWAGEN Commercial Vehicles has launched a new Engineered To Go conversion for the Crafter Luton van, with the Palfinger tail lift now available as a model in its own right. The new off-the-shelf model, which starts from £45,690, means customers no longer need to option the tail lift, with standard-fit typically increasing residual values from £600 to £1,000, according to leading valuation specialists. The Palfinger V500LQ tail lift provides 500kg lifting capacity on an aluminium load platform.
