If money were no object, which would you buy?
Old, maybe a Leyland Octopus or an old Scania.
Atkinson borderer 240 Gardner
I would be greedy and have both; old would have to be an ERF LV, and new a nice posh V8 Scania
I’d go in the middle, there’s a restored 143-500 Topline Streamline that was in the magazines a couple of years ago, that’d do me nicely, a few creature comforts and a bit less technological junk to go wrong
Although if money was no object…I would be driving something Italian, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani, maybe one of each, but definitely not IVECO

how about a boat “I know where a jobs going” !!!
It all depends on what you’re going to use it for.
For just keeping in a garage and taking out now and then I’d have a Scania 141.
For actually using it to earn a living and driving everyday I’d have a Volvo VN.
Or are we talking about women? Well,now then,where do I start!
Would have to an erf ec14 525, 6x2 on air with an olympic cab.
Twin eminox and a jake brake, and must have a twin splitter.
Would be still able to work it at 44 ton and enjoy myself in the process
