Does anyone remember or are they still going, a company from the north east called Lightning Express. I know they were in a magazine at some point with a little DAF 45 rigid used mainly on delivering car parts to Europe on a double manned express. The truck was airbrushed with fighter jets and aircraft. Had lots of lights all over. I’m trying to find some photos of said truck or even the magazine article. Any help as always appreciated. 
think this is what you’re looking for
Thats the kiddy, any idea where it is now??
I saw it on eBay maybe 6 months ago.

Looking at the phone number I’d say they were from the newcastle/durham area
When i was pulling IRF trailers, we used to (i think IRF still do) load groupage from Seaham, and their yard was on the same estate.
eBay!! Unbelievable how much and who bought it??!!
