Saviem's fan club (Part 1)

Talking about Swiss manufacturer Saurer, here are a few shots of two beautiful units I was able to take earlier this Month.

They are both equipped with Saurer’s largest-ever engine, rated at 330hp.

Later I was able to find out that these two motors belong to an avid collector who has done a great job restoring these two units, one of which apparently still sees occasional action in the “winter service” i.e. snow ploughing. And inside the shed I saw a third one in an advanced state of restoration as well.

As usual please click on the picture and it will behave itself

Note the air suspension on this one. Looks rather crude but robust at the same time.

That’s it Gentlemen.
Bonne nuit.
