The order was taken and fulfilled by Tring based Boss Plant Sales Ltd the official Kubota construction equipment dealer for London and the home counties. Boss Plant Sales is also an official Manitou, Bomag, Ausa, and Boss Cabins dealer.

The order brings Ranger Plant Hire’s Kubota fleet to over 150 mini-excavators. Ranger bought their first Kubota mini in 1994 and have remained loyal to the market leading brand ever since due to the machine’s reliability, operating economy, site acceptance and strong residual values.
This latest batch of Kubota minis, breaker and trailers are specified to fulfil all the working requirements of the buoyant utilities contracting sector.

Ranger Plant Hire Director Mark Philpin (shown in the image above with his son Harry) commented at the hand-over “We’ve run Kubota minis for over 25 years and they’ve never let us down. The machines are economic, reliable, and easy and safe to operate. The support and service from Boss Plant Sales is also a deciding factor.”
