Can’t seem to copy the photo here… But you may be interested to know that even Scania’s broke down!..occassionally…
Bob and Gordon were struggling to climb the mountain and ended up breaking a half shaft. The Danish driver dropped his trailer and came back to tow them. Unfortunately, he also broke a half shaft! As Gordon took the pic, they were both waiting to be towed, much to the disgust of some Turkish drivers who had to wait further down the mountian for the road to be “cleared”.
Good old days.

Most of the ergo’s had a sleeper extension put on by the end of the 60’s we were thankful for that when a lot of firms never even bothered to try.
