Wonder what the mpg figures are going to be like. I get between 9.25-9.55 per week, depending a bit on weight and how much Scotland is involved.

I’m in a 17 plate XF, unsurprisingly the same poverty spec as daftvader :laughing: Though I do switch ACC, PCC, AEBS, LDW and EcoRoll off every time.

Astronic has been dropped in the new versions in favour of the newer Traxon box, a manual is still availble in 16 speed as they have now dropped the 8 speed manual offering

Dropped the 8-speed? That’s the standard box for rigids above 18 tonnes; is that gone? I’d have thought the 12-speed would be the one they drop.

Im only talking tractor units as that all i have had a quote for , i know last year everyone was moaning you couldnt get a 16 speed anymore only 8 but now its the other way round, also offering a 16 speed option instead of 12 on the traxon auto box which should be nice to drive
