<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Revolutionizing Metropolitan Transport: C &amp; S Motor Group's Latest Fleet Upgrade</h2>

<!-- /wp:heading -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->

<p>In a groundbreaking move, C &amp; S Motor Group, headquartered in Edmonton, has recently acquired eight cutting-edge <a href="<https://www.advanced-kfs.co.uk/vehicle/ultra-car-transporter/>">KFS 3500kg Car Transporters</a>, marking a significant milestone as they secured the prestigious Metropolitan Police contract for 16 London Boroughs north of the River Thames.</p>

<p>These state-of-the-art vehicles, built on the reliable Fiat Ducato platform and equipped with the latest Euro 5 130ps drive train, bring a new level of efficiency to C &amp; S Motor Group's operations. The trucks boast a comprehensive 3 years/120,000-mile warranty, with the first two years offering unlimited coverage, 30,000-mile service intervals, and 3 years of roadside assistance for the cab.</p>

<p>What sets these transporters apart is the innovative drop chassis conversion exclusive to KFS. This design offers a host of advantages over standard chassis cab units, including an 80-100kg increase in payload capacity, a lower deck for improved load angles, an extended wheelbase for enhanced weight distribution, and a torsion bar rear suspension that eliminates the need for additional leaf springs or airbags.</p>

<p>Packed with features to meet the demanding requirements of their operations, each vehicle is specified with a Delta 2,250kg EN14492-1 compliant winch. This winch, complete with a steel rope and wireless remote, ensures efficient and secure vehicle loading. Additional features include a free-issue light bar, work lights, storage locker, and straps, all contributing to a seamlessly integrated and fully equipped transport solution.</p>

<p>These vehicles underwent rigorous scrutiny through Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA) processes and were delivered to C &amp; S Motor Group during the months of May and June, ready to take on the challenges of their expansive contract with the Metropolitan Police.</p>

<p>Mark Armitage, Operations Manager for C &amp; S, expressed his satisfaction with the decision, stating, "We needed a flexible truck after successfully securing the Metropolitan Police Contract for such a vast area. We explored various options, and despite not being the cheapest, the KFS solution offered the best package in terms of payload, flexibility, and lead-time—critical factors for us. The vehicle's design is perfect for the demanding operational environment we face in London, and we are delighted with the outstanding performance of the eight units thus far."&nbsp;</p>
