I need all the practising Hauliers to advice me on this issue. I got an entry level truck to test the Haulage market. The picture is attached

Specification
Scania G82 1982

Length: 945 cm
Breadth: 248 cm
Unladen Weight: 9390 kg
Load Mass: 7110 kg
Towable Mass: 3000kg
Total Weight: 16500 kg

Now an experience Haulage adviced that i should not bring the truck in but should rather go for a higher spec. 380hp-440hp as this one has very low engine capacity and could only be used for small jobs like pure water haulage and the likes.

I just want a second opinion on this issue before i recall my money from the truck company. From the pictures and the specifications given above do you think the truck is good enough for entry level contracts with well established organisation like P&G etc?

Your advice will be greatly appreciated
