personally, i think the volvo is overpriced at that muchAt that mileage I think I’d price it at £20k ONO and take the first bite
More like 12k at the moment as it’s only a 4x2. There was an 08 iveco 450 6x2 on ebay last week that only made £5100, don’t even think an iveco would cost the 30 k difference in breakdowns 
35k would buy you all the extra tat you get on a Topliner you don’t need…
Deffo the ‘not a truck’ if it was my 35K…might as well set fire to the money as buy a truck…

Paint job on that Scania is rubbish. For that reason, I choose the Volvo.
It has been tarted. It is a lot of money for a restoration and for me the fun would be in doing it myself in period livery, I would rather put 2.5k into that little D series below the ebay advert and spend some weekends with her.

I’ve just bought a 1994 Scania 143 as a toy. It’s something which will increase in value in the next 10-15 years but more importantly gives me and my son quality time together working on it which is a lot more interesting than fishing or football. I’ll no doubt get slated by the ‘I hate trucks’ brigade but feel free to post what you do on days off, I can guarantee a lot will think you’re sad and pathetic as well.
Nice i bet you have alot of fun with that. Whats it like to insurance and just general running costs? Any pictures?

well id love it and if i had the lottery up it would be on its way to wales+1
They should have restored the original cab that cabs a lot later than a 71
Interior later,headlamps should be in the bumper air tanks and battery are different
But that’s me being picky I would still like it
i reckon its a rigid thats been cut down,they had different airtanks i think,and a shame its a later cab-i reckon the earlier interiors are much better(especially the steering wheel-have you seen how much they go for now!!!)
prefer the headlights in the grille though,so i think i could live with it lol

even so, it is still cheaper than the 4x2 in the OP
