How great does the new Actros look, you can see more in the link below. Only one bad thing and that is how dirty the interior will get being beige, there is also a version with what looks like a wooden floor and all beige leather, not a good idea !!!
Look’s very good i would like to see one in a company’s colour’s though,the PR pic’s can be misleading. My only concern would be reliability ,cast your mind back to the early mp1 and Mercedes swore they had it tested to the hilt also

When they were developing the MP1, Scania brought out the 4 Series, and it made the SK look prehistoric so the Actros was launched a lot earlier than planned, the rest is history
Don’t think Merc will make a ■■■■ up like that one up again, and there’s nothing really revolutionary new, its more of an evolution. The electronics won’t be a lot different to the last model, gearbox is vitually carried over, and the engine went on sale in the Yank markets over three years ago, so fingers crossed

Looks very good,voted truck of the year 2012,question is,who can afford to buy one??
If our Transport manager get’s his way then we will have 43 of them early next year…
He wont thay dont hit these shores till november 2012
We wont be having them then as our M A N’s go back in june 2012…that was a waste of time flying him and one of our drivers out to Germany for the launch
