Dear Mr Patrick, pv83, Whippersnapper, Whips, Young un or whatever alias you go by (and these are the polite ones) ,

this is the kind of Scania I like. Back then, when I was younger, a lot younger, they were my preferred wagon, especially the sound of the V8.

Cheers for putting all my aliases on here mate, if the taxman comes I’ll send him straight forward to you! Not to mention all them angry lassies…

But I remembered you’re a fan of the older models, had to search in the archive, but in the end I found that pic of the two of us standing in front of a 143… the driver thought you were making love to his unit…

Cheers everyone for posting photos and articles and keeping the thread going, much appreciated lads

That’s only so they realise not everyone is tight on their money, and not everyone is nicknamed McScrooge

Never been down there myself, but it looks like he’s parked up just outside the gate, with what seems to be a Kamag coil carrier?

Cheers for posting robthedog
