In the driver’s defence wasn’t it alway’s customary to ask the Forky " have you got any dent’s mate " when you were delivering to a brewery :wink: , and thank’s for some more great photo’s Marc.

10212

Hi everyone,some E.R.Fs today :slight_smile:

The last pic suggests that however handy it was to fork the load off surely you’d need a lot of space to tip and building sites never have much room plus the ground would be so uneven.Also to do it in a “B” series without an air assisted clutch must have been a nightmare :frowning: :frowning:

Cheers Marc. :laughing:

10213

How right you are Marc :wink: would’nt matter if you had the bestest motor with the bestest air suspension that pallet of pipes would be reduced to ■■■■■■■■ in seconds on a site :laughing: :laughing:

Actually Bubbleman the E6 was mine from new, my mate Bumper got this one wrong, not like him but its been a long time. I even found the original invoice for the ERF the other day when raking about in the house. I would love to say I had happy memories of this wagon but unfortunately it done me in, I just couldn’t except driving it after losing my old Transcon when the engine seized and got so disinterested I knocked lumps out of it, three daft bumps in a week so got suspended for a week but decided to go somewhere else and drive benders again with more luck, a change is as good as a rest they say.
The little ■■■■■■■ in it just wouldn’t pull your hat off and I got fed up having to keep lowering the bunk every night. Nice surprise to see the photo though as I never thought I’d see the beasty again, can’t blame her though just me, never favoured it. I wonder what the caption to the pic said as it must be from the Comm Motor, that will be me driving it probably although driver can’t be seen, looks more like I’m backing into the car behind which sounds about right! Franky.

Hello Franky,I know exactly what you went through mate…I came off a 113 Scania onto an E10 E.R.F…I always used to say to my workmates that if I ever won the lottery I’d buy the ■■■■■■ thing and set fire to it in front of the traffic office :smiling_imp:
Bubbs :laughing:
