Got to be one of the best looking cabs ever created!

Powered by a great big 6LW Gardner,but I wish that I was still working on it :slight_smile:

I think the smartest one I ever saw was Harold’s, Clive. No doubt there’s a photo of it somewhere?

I note that Richard Read has now Renaults in his line up ! regards Keith .

Don’t know what the situation is now, Keith, but just before I retired Renault Premiums were the best 44 tonne deal on a 4-year lease agreement. Could have something to do with the French monstrosities in the RR fleet?
