Lyons maid

Continuing the discussion from The MIGHTY Volvo F7:

The f7 in the picture flk 632 t was mine when i drove for lyons maid / findus in the 80s[quote=“fh13, post:1, topic:166281, full:true”]

Rattlesnake Dave:
You’re right about the headroom in the F7 Spardo, I had one on Alpine (Lyons Maid/Findus) for a while and I had a stiff neck for most of the time I was driving it. The lack of visibility was exacerbated when it rained as the wiper blade sweep made the visible area even lower and what with the low window on the door, I ended up with a permanent stoop!
Here’s a pic of one getting a wash and brush up.

Hello Rattlesnake Dave.

I hope its OK I open so early created tread. Otherwise the mod may ban me or remove this message. :wink:

I’m new on this tread and am is reading with pleasure because I’m a Volvo fan but not driving one. Your picture looks a little funny and I will explain:

It was as other say the four clubs as developed and paid the cost of the cabin. But Volvo chooses use boot sides from the F6 model because the constructor want a low step up in the cabin. I don’t know if DAF, Renault and Magirus Dutch did it on their cabin but I think it must have been so because of the cost. I wonder if they have had twenty-five peoples waiting to test sit and tell the truth.

Have a good day
