I overtook this little thing on my way home yesterday. Very plain but very smart. The driver probably has the best job in the world, delivering Dutch chicks all over europe….. Just imagine!

This little beauty has been created by our very own Mr Rowlands. Although he says it needs tidying up a little, it still looks good as a first attempt. Apparently you can download the truck model from the internet, then you can customise it yourself. This one being based on the white livery of V8 HCW, Chris’s brothers truck. Have you designed your own truck on the compooter, why not send it to me so i can put it on here for all to see. Email me at ben@truckblog.co.uk
This was taken in Zadar, Croatia on the 19th Dec. Weekended while waiting to clear customs. The load was destined for a little island just off the coast of Zadar called Ugljan Island. TIR and ATA carnets used. Wilsons are doing a second load for delivery on the 31st Dec.

Also spotted by the keen eye Dutchman was this lovely 141. What a cracker who ever owns that is a lucky fella!!
Although its a pitty its not as in focus as the pic of EGV below, i think its just that i was going to fast for the camera to keep up. V8 power all the way!
The new Scania Dark Diamond, click here to go to Scania’s Dark pages,
I’ve just made my first Christmas list to Father Christmas since i was a nipper, looks like a cracker, all the bells and whistles and rather a mean and moody colour, looks like Scania have finally produced a decent Europe wide special edition. Saying that i haven’t read through all the bumpf yet, so apologies if i’m wrong!! If by any chance you see or know some one who has ordered one, email me at ben@truckblog.co.uk
The other good little snippet was this comment “With the Dark Diamond we are starting a tradition of factory-supported limited edition vehicles,” concludes Mr Joel Granath of Scania Sweden. Smart!!

Yea your right its a 6×6 military thingy! Just had a fresh respray in UN white and its been sprayed everywhere when i say every where, well on the outside any way. Off for another lease of life in Africa some where. Any more details or infor on these Scania’s let me know; ben@truckblog.co.uk
I can’t remember if i have posted this already, i think i probably have. I don’t think there are many times you’ll get a line up like this anymore. Taken at Assen this year, look at the lovely 141 in the background!! I might dig out the color version at some point if i can’t be bothered to see if i have posted it before. Great picture, but would have been awhole lot better if they all had period trailers!!
Another nice picture, looking very tidy with a euroliner this time. I think the red lights are almost a one off in this country, judging by how hard it was to get hold of some, leave it to the dutch and they’ll sort it.
Sent to me by regular contributer, my mate Big Hand, both trucks looking clean and tidy in the Autum sun. Just because its nearly winter is no excuse for a dirty truck! Both sound as good as they look too. Nice picture TN.
