Where are those units?i don’t remember the name of the company i’m afraid , i was sent there to get work done on my trailer & it was like a retirement home for scammels !
postman paul:
Hi all,
That’s interesting a MIRA test truck, what they testing there, rust?Paul
not any more ! leyland sent to mira to test one of the first pusher axles fitted. , so MIRA tested it for them & continued to use it for testing other leyland components & trailer trials , till leyland just gave it to them , & this collector bought it when it was sold , it still has the full rollcage in the cab

Sorry richmond, the yard has been cleared and built on now - it was at Birdwell, Barnsley.
