New theory! I suspect that there were two different types of LHD E-series.
The LHD E-series as we know it on this thread, was introduced in the early ‘90s to mark ERF’s re-entry into the European market. These vehicles were all basically an early version of the EC-series with an E-series cab.
However, does anyone know of an LHD E-series that was produced before that time: ie between the unveiling of the E-series in the late ‘80s and the commencement of the new Euro-style ones in the early ‘90s. I ask because these pre-Euro LHD E-series (if they existed) would have been of standard E-series spec (rather than EC) and therefore capable of sustaining a Fuller RTX 14609 gearbox, thus bringing me closer to the possibility that a LHD version of the owner-drivers’ Supertruck (mentioned in previous posts) existed.
