The register lists this model for the build year 2001.
At 430 hp, this rating sat in the middle to upper power range of the XF95 series and was built for long-haul work with a semi-trailer, where pulling force is transferred to the tractor through the trailer's kingpin. Tractor units in this class are subject to an EU-wide top speed limit of 90 km/h, and air suspension on the drive axle is the common arrangement for long-haul tractor units of this kind. For the driver, the XF95 range means a full-size sleeper cab with sufficient standing height and storage space, easing compliance with mandatory rest periods on multi-day long-haul tours.
For a used example, check the condition of the frame and fifth-wheel coupling, the mileage and condition of the diesel engine along with its turbocharger, brake system operation, and the tightness of the air suspension on the drive axle. It is also worth checking the condition of the sleeper cab's interior fittings, which can be heavily worn on vehicles used intensively for long-haul work. Drivetrain parts run through the DAF dealer network.
