Saviem's fan club (Part 1)

pete smith:
Hi Fergie, I’ll take the one in the second photo, nice and easy access in and out of cab, what make and year is it please? :blush:

Helo Pete.

No, you would not like that little H serie Latil, which became the Saviem LRS serie H. She is a 1957, with a little 4 cylinder. You would really prefer the big Somua, in the next picture down, with the 190 hp 6 cyl, and that futuristic Cottard cab, 80 kph, @26 tonnes in the 58/61 period. That was some lorry, and she had a heater, and leather seats!..A mans lorry!

Happy Christmas, …Joyeux Noel…

Cheerio for now.
