Gerrard Herring, General Manager at Hartridge Ltd said “This has proven to be an exiting new development. The CRp-PC was presented to our UK customers last week during UK Trade Days, and we received a lot of positive feedback. Despite the current uncertainty in the economic environment, we are certainly seeing encouraging signs of workshop owners wanting to invest in their businesses.”

The first batch of machines have all been sold and are currently going through their last series of tests before being shipped to their new owners, in the Czech Republic and the Netherlands.

The CRp-PC will be on display on the Delphi Stand at Autopromotec, in Italy from the 20th to the 24th May 2009.
