Hi Martyn,
We have a lot of South Cornelly artics up here hauling for the last few months. I expect you know most of them,they haven’t got much on down there apparently.
Cheers Dave.

Nice line up of tippers Martyn,was the Scania yours as well. There is a fair mix of Scania’s and Volvo’s this way,possibly 60/40 Volvo.
Cheers Dave.

A few operators this way have gone down the same route Martyn,had a few problems with one or other,then switched to another make. There are several Daf’s up here now,with just a few Fodens left.
Cheers Dave.

We don’t see many with that type of sheeting system this way Martyn,most have roll over sheets,expect for site work the system you have on that Scania is better.
Cheers Dave.
the sheeting system on the steel body is a good system they have altered them now machines would have a habit of dropping material on the arms and bend them so they changed the position of the arms they still abit flimsey if drivers sheet up on the move which they do .

Seee a lot of them in the Commercial moter on the muckaway tippers,so they must suit that type of heavy duty body,but haven’t really got much knowledge about them,was interested to ask what they were like.
Cheers Dave.
