The one on the left above is mine before the makeover. The other one will get done in time.
For the record the red Volvo and the lo ride Volvo are no longer with us.

Not yet but it’s heading that way. We have a 51 plate version 1 FH still mint and she’ll never leave.
Mine is a 460. All the other Daf’s are 510

Ive seen your trucks alot in various truck mags doing the truck tests,all the drivers seem to look after their trucks,whats your thoughts on the new daf , i really like the look of the new cab,i had a demostrator superspace about 10 yrs ago X1 DAF was the number plate ,i liked everything about that truck apart from the auto gearbox,ended up with a fh and to be honest i dont think i will ever change unless its summat really good

Agree with you Seth when I was younger my da use to work for a company who used them 95s and 164s and my dad always said the scania gearbox was a lot smoother and the daf was a bit hard to see out of
Have to say I love it. I had the red Volvo before and I was reluctant to jump out of it, but this Daf is something else. It’s so smooth and quiet and effortless. Obviously a bigger living area than the FH, and the bunk is just epic. The basic dash layout hasn’t changed much since the 95. Just been modernised. Who ever designed the seat and driving position must’ve had me in mind because it’s spot on.
The auto box has been updated since the 105, and while it’s still not as good as the i-shift it’s not far behind. Once you get used to its ways and work with it, it’s fine. The exhaust brake is good too. It’ll pretty much stop you if you’re running light at low speed.
Power wise there’s not much difference from the Volvo which was a 520. Sarn bank at 40t both were down to 45. She seems to lug better than the Volvo, although being ‘only’ a 460.
Personally I wouldn’t swap it for anything else. We had a Merc Gigaspace on demo which I had for a few days which was really nice, and if I was offered the choice, after a long think I’d go for the Daf.

the new daf seems to have a lot of little differents to the 105 but it seems to make a big difference
