It’s had some ■■■■■■ aftermarket twin light conversion.

Serie 4 Scania’s xenon also looks like that

That unit looks like the type that usually pull ejector/waste trailers - no spoiler or fog(sorry driving) lights :laughing:
Just a bit more sturdy on the front end.
MAN do a "Baseline "model like that dont they ?

This is an approved Mercedes option, which is mainly fitted to low-height Actros tractors or rigids. Most of the take-up of this option has been for car-transporters etc though there was one supplied to a heavy haulage company who were running it with a low-height low loader trailer moving cranes and road planing equipment.

As already said they are an option for low running units to reduce the chance of damaged lights from stone chips etc.

This truck really has some strange headlights. Usually are high. But I notice that truck has a really low headlight or is it really a headlight?
