Palfrey adds another SANY UK & Ireland machine to the fleet.

Thank you to Phillip Palfrey for the purchase of a SANY SY80U, adding another SANY machine to his fleet and marking his third SANY purchase of 2026, alongside his SY26 and SY60.

And when you look at the SY80U, it’s easy to see why…

With its compact dimensions and short-tail-swing design, the SY80U delivers precise performance where space is limited. It’s ideally suited to working in confined areas and on busy construction sites where manoeuvrability and visibility are essential.

🔹 Extremely compact short-tail-swing excavator with Stage V YANMAR engine
🔹 Excellent panoramic visibility and a comfortable operator’s cab
🔹 5-year / 5,000-hour warranty as standard for complete peace of mind

Thank you again to Phillip for choosing SANY, and we look forward to seeing the SY80U out on site.
