Allowing for the camera optical distortion it makes the FH cab look “small”.
Talkin to one of our drivers today he said he would not to give up his FH for one of them,any way Gazz Renault are bringin out a new model when the oxo cube bites the dust next year with FH cab engine and running gear so only the badge is different and they are cheaper to boot.
New Norman can remember a new A series ERF parked by the mushroom farm at Awbridge where he lived on a 1967 plate F reg ready for the off on the first of August that year ,i used to cart straw past there with a nuffield tractor and trailer in the day when i wuz just a youth where have all the years gone to,cheers Buzzer.

Hi All
The Strato still lives. & the A series may have been an LV as they didnt make A series in 67
Cheers Rich
Hi Rich i stand corrected on the Norman Offer ERF and expect you are right,i did not ever own any so not an authority on them.Got a feeling Mr Ping with the pony tail used it on shunting duties in its latter years.
Hi John
Andrew used it until it was taken off the road it is now slowly being restored.
Do you want a 12 to restore and does it need to be a globetrotter.

LMS Distribution Nursling later became Stena Sealink
I just knew that sooner or later I would see one of my ex motors on here, used to work for LMS out of dock gate 4 which then became Stena Line Distribution at Nursling. Worked there for eight years up to closure in 1998, Happy days.
Hello Mr Jake, G147 SJO F10 320 6x2 Pusher axle, what a good truck just a shame it was abused by so many so called LMS drivers, hope you werent one of them.

They were originally in the Eastern Docks Soton then moved out to Nursling Ind Estate which is now Macks vehicles changed colour to blue and re branded stena sealink. IIRC the Transport manager was Graham New a right misreable B------ until you got to know him
