Eilir has an extensive amount of pictures and information on mansel davies,he tells me that they ran 7 Scania’s .
nice pic. i remember dad buying that from Mansel Davies back in 1985. He was selling all the scanias because he had started the volvo dealership!
hi,
i wondered when m.d. went all volvo? i thought it was when the highline was launched.i also remember them with seddon atki 401’s.for me they are and always will be an iconic welsh haulier .
regards andrew.
Hi Pete 359
Very interesting to see the different vehicles that Mansel Davies has run over the years, however would you have a photo of that F86 that’s following the MAN. My father drove one for years at a coal yard in Brynamman and we have no photos so are always on the lookout!!

i found this remains of an old mandator in blaenavon b4 xmas
Hello Smallcoal,
It is not a Mandator.- It’s a Beaver, with a Leyland fuel tank and rear axle.
There is a 680 engine under the cab. - Can you tell us the reg No ?
regards - Hywel.
