This must be the one and only time I say thank god for MSA’s. They have (usually) clean, hot showers and they’re free. I’ll use one, then move on to a suitable free parking area.
No way would I consider using one of those portable things, for all and sundry to peer over top in a layby somewhere.
You lot dont know your born, when i was a lad, and the A1 was a mud track, i used to sleep across the bonnet, we didnt wash for a month, and ate sheeps eyes for breakfast. It would have been a luxury to have a colostomy bag. warmed up in the midday sun, and then use it for a shower…my god, people think its just been invented…lol…lol…drivers…wimps more like…ha ha ha
Well…Well…where did you hear that rumour then OLT…ive driven a few F88/9s and F10/12/16s and FH12s…bewen everywhere, and never ever have i seen any model above with a shower fitted to any part of the cab…even in the dessert.
i have seen a inside shower…home made…and a sink/tap etc on a middle east spec, most under the bottom bunk, and one with one fitted in the space where the passenger seat used to be…

Unfortunately I never took a photo of the showers I rigged up when doing M/E.
My first one was on a Scania 142, lift up the front grille,big and square,I had a shower curtain which fastened to the four corners of it.A bracket behind the front bumper held a gallon water bottle,a screenwasher pump with switch,and a tube up to a nozzle overhead and bingo,one shower.Word soon got around,and if I was seen parked up for the night,I was never short of company,“Any chance of using your shower mate?”
After the 142 I had a Volvo F12,with a full width catwalk.Two shower curtains between the rear corners of the cab and the trailer tilt,water bottle on the roofrack,washer pump,switch and nozzle,way to go!
