The future is here?

Saw this on an estate in Derby this morning.

Wouldn’t want to run it through a trick wash or try and access a light bulb

Or clip a kerb with those fancy panels so low.

Saw that on the M1 northbound on Friday at J23, did a bit of a double take when I saw it!

It looks more disgusting in the flesh!

…lol … :laughing: :laughing:
That is one - ■■■■ ugly piece of zb :open_mouth:

The train to France is out of the question then, what a odd and horrible looking pos it is, wtf have they done to the wipers do they tell the time too?

Looks like it has some amount of blind spots on it with that black ring round the windscreen, plus all the poles and the mirrors. Money’s right I’ll drive it though :laughing:

Think that yoke is prob well over 10yrs old!!!
Didn’t Merc have a number of some proto “future” type models commissoned??
Driver sits in middle of cab if I’m not mistaken!!!

One ugly unit supposed to look modern? Don’t think so

It’s a mobile tradeshow on a european tour, it’s in Derby today and East Kilbride Thursday

still FUGLY!! though :laughing:

It’s a Minion :laughing:

To be honest this ain’t new the same design has been knocking about 20 odd years and a similar trucks been on the road at least 10 yrs.

And with the impending situation of the :unamused: driverless truck :unamused: coming there won’t be a need for glass doors and seats , so really the truck of the future is already obsoleat.

Pedestrian friendly, I think not.

It always reminds me of those stupid Japanese vans:
