“In terms of the products themselves, it was an easy choice. They get through small gaps and work efficiently in small spaces. The micro is a great machine, so capable, it is amazing how much work it can do. I grew up with JCB; it’s a British brand and now more than ever I want to support that.”
JCB UK and Ireland Sales Director Steve Smith said: “We are determined to support our customers’ machine requirements during the challenging current Covid-19 crisis. The new service gives customers the ability to buy some of JCB’s most popular products online, directly from the manufacturer, with no need to meet face-to-face or leave their homes.”
The JCB machines available to purchase on line are the 8008 micro excavator; the16C-1, 18Z-1 and 8026 mini excavators; the HTD5 Dumpster; the 1T-2 site dumper and S1930 and S2632 scissor lifts.
Available to UK mainland customers, buying online using JCB Finance* represents the fast and efficient new way to purchase JCB compact equipment. Customers simply visit the website direct.jcb.com, select the model and pay a £100 ’holding fee’ to secure their machine.
They will then be contacted by JCB Finance to complete the application and the machine will be delivered direct to their door by JCB.
Machines are fitted with the JCB LiveLink telematics system as standard, where applicable, and can be selected with a service contract at the online checkout. This covers routine scheduled maintenance up to three years and 1,500 hours – along with service parts and oils, labour and travel.
