Why are modern vehicles so dog ugly? That Ford thing in another thread is the same … horrible. No style or elegance to the design at all.
That’s only available in Turkey & them sorts of places, they probly don’t give a chuff what they look like over there.
I don’t think the T range looks too bad it just could’ve been so much better looking if they’d have kept along more of the lines of the radiance concept.

Is looking very good I like the new Renault saw one from Owens in South Wales.
As with all moden lorries thess days the paint job can make it or wreck it’s looks
a few interior pics from last nights drive in one
dash board layout lcd screen
lockers over screen
night driving lights
no clunky buttons
passenger seat
bunk (will need a cover on in that colour)
Those switches can be moved about so you could put both banks of switches side by side or one over the other or swop them with the overhead bank of switches. You can just make out the little lugs either side which you pull out to release. As they are on what’s called a Lin Bus system they can go where you want.

That’s another problem I have with modern vehicles … all those dash switches look very small and fiddly. Did the designers not realise that people would be driving when they were trying to use these things? Switches in vehicles should be enormous and obvious, and you shouldn’t have to look at them to use them.

That’s a demonstrator, ■■■■■■ brown colour… we also have one
The bit I like best is knock the park brake off with the throttle… no need for an additional hill start assistant. Point to note is, you can only kick it off whilst in gear and engine running, so no accidental runaways while your just sat in the seat drinking tea This is always assuming this feature actually made it into production, it was on the field test trucks.
