Being away and distance

Franglais:

Olog Hai:
When I went to Turkey on a job last year there were plenty of Iranian trucks on the motorway east of Istanbul. How far into Europe do they get to?

In the early 90s I saw a few in Czechoslavakia. Cant remember seeing any further west than that. Twin axle Scanias with twin axle tilts, all on big diameter wheels.

Interesting, thanks. I’ve never seen an Iranian truck in the UK but there are plenty of them in Turkey, and plenty of Turkish motors here, so I wondered how far west they do get. I don’t suppose there is anything preventing them from coming this far.

Thinking back, I recall that there were quite a few Volvos on Iranian plates besides Scanias.
