Moving into my new lorry later!

Might be a stupid question, but why is your beast a door length longer than the mere Tesco Mercs? Or are you not quite on the bay?

Nice looking rig by the way.

Oh ah. My bad. Hadn’t noticed a lack of trailer. :blush:

Hi Luke,

Have you put on weight? Surely you can get out without opening the door completely :wink:

Just wondered when we’re gonna get a tour round your lovely new motor, as there’s nothing on YouTube yet. I’ve always enjoyed your blogs and the amusing commentary, :sunglasses:

On a separate note I met a ‘750’ for the first time the other day, a lovely old Irish fella and it had ‘Irish Express’ written on the front. He was quite proud of the fact that he could get 29 mpg from it!

Regards

29mpg?? You’ve been had there mate :wink:

  1. My boots live on the step, inside is outdoor boot free so I have to open door all way to get my boots on

  2. Not made yet but one in the pipeline I promise.

  3. He can’t get 29mpg from it. Wouldn’t even do that running solo let alone with a trailer on!

Im glad you enjoy my blog, that’s always nice to hear

There isn’t a vehicle on earth I’d rather get into!

Yeah fair point, he was Irish after all! :laughing:

This little button on the bottom right is the dogs danglies! iPark, aircon with the engine off, absolutely fantastic. Can also put it on a time so you’ll always have a cool cab! Woop

On the subject of heating does it have a water heater being RHD? That’s the thing that keeps the coolant flowing found engine while night heater is running, normally got a small exhaust pipe under bottom step. Glad you like it and given up on driving a desk!

Ah! But what does Bertie think of it? Does he approve?

Bertie thinks it’s crap. Keeps muttering ‘its no ERF Olympic’ and that ‘ERFs are proper mens wagons and that an FH16 is a poncy poofwagon’. I don’t think he likes it

Just tell him ERF cabs were made with recycled Lego heads and that’ll shut him up.

:grimacing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Comment of the year so far…

Bertie would say that as the last 750 he was in, he found himself at a weird angle in a ditch. :smiley:

Neither of us have been in a ditch in a 750… :wink:

Dan bear 87 the Irish man would have been the owner of the 750.PJ Ryan would have told you 29ltrs to the 100kms as he’s a Swiss haulier and works in litres :wink: I wouldn’t hesitate to say ‘pj’ is one of the most knowledgeable people on the fh16.
