74 WHAT TRADIES WANT.Celebrating the link between the Renault
Sport Formula 1 Team and Renault LCV
as a supplier of vital transportation for
development parts from factory to test
track and race circuit, the Renault Trafic
Formula Edition comes with evocative
yellow trim highlights, a sporty yellow
racing stripe and a choice of Jet Black or
Storm Grey paint.
Renault Australia has been able to secure
these 80 examples from a very limited
global supply, and we’re confident Aussie
buyers will be keen to grab one.
In addition to the choice of exterior colour,
the limited edition Trafic is available in
short- or long-wheelbase, and all versions
are powered by the gutsy 103kW, twin-
turbo diesel.
The full exterior pack for the Formula
Edition comprises a body-coloured front
bumper, rear light surrounds and door
rail, black-painted 17-inch ‘Cyclade’ alloy
wheels with yellow centre caps, a unique
black Renault diamond bonnet badge,
yellow upper and lower grille inserts,
yellow fog-lamp surrounds, ‘Formula
Edition’ side stripes and an anti-theft
spare-wheel holder.
Inside is just as special, featuring Java
Premium upholstery with a heated driver’sseat, media navigation system with seven-
inch touchscreen, premium dashboard
layout with storage compartment, chrome
instrument panel surround, gloss black side
air-vent surrounds, leather-covered gear
selector with chrome-plated trim, chrome-
plated speaker surround, ‘Formula Edition’
floor mats, the incredibly useful wide-viewmirror, deadlocking security system and
LED ceiling lights.
The unique Trafic Formula Edition is
priced from $41,990 (manufacturer’s list
price) for the short-wheelbase model, while
the long-wheelbase version is priced from
$43,490(MLP).

When it comes to ¾" pneumatic-powered
impact wrenches, the offering from M7 Tools
is unbeatable. Weigh them up against what
you’re currently using (unless it’s already an
M7), compare the torque output, weight,
sound level, build quality, and how much you
paid for it, and the M7 Air impact wrenches
come out ahead every time.
There are a couple of standout guns in the
¾" range.
The NC6236 is the ‘heavier’ tool for those
who prefer a traditional cast-alloy body tool.
With that said it still weighs only 2.68kg – half
the weight of the competition. With a massive
1200ft/lb of torque, quiet 83dB sound level,
and at just over $500 this gun is amazing.Keep it oiled and serviced and you’ll have it
operating for the rest of your life.
Unbelievably, there’s then a lighter-weight
tool.
The latest release is the NC6255, featuring
a magnesium alloy and composite material
construction bringing the weight down a
staggering 1.9kg. If you have an impact gun
in your hand all day, this is the tool for you. A
massive 1400ft/lb of torque means it can spin
the earth, and at around $550 it’s not only
easy to hold all day, it’s also easy to obtain.
