The Virginia one looks mint, should’ve waited for the new shape though.
Yeah but celebrating 31 years doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as 30 years

Only because the daft bugger forgot his 25th anniversary last year. Still, what do you expect? 26 years on nights would send me ■■■■■■■ mental too!

When your riding the night horse, exact numbers don’t matter! 
That’s true switch but don’t tell me it hasn’t crossed your mind!
I appreciate burns runs loads of wagons but as long as the cold store is making a healthy profit the trucks don’t HAVE to which is why I wouldn’t class them as a true haulier, they’re in with RB.
If they were a haulier only without the cold store, I doubt they’d be running such A grade kit.
I’ve been fortunate too have one this week. And I LOVE it!. There is more storage than the previous model. I have a vw passat and hate the electric handbrake in that! But the volvos is a nice smooth action. I like the dash layout too little screens which tell you what you need too know and you can go into settings and change it too what other info you want. The mattress is top notch too! Defo the comfiest cab I have been in. In my opinion it’s that good that offered too work Saturday! And trust me Scotty boy does not do Saturdays lol.

It crossed my mind, when I asked the boss if this was gonna be the new shape, when he said no its not out till next year my answer was ‘thank god I think it looks horrible’. And the thing is I’ve seen many on the road and I still think it looks horrible. I love my old shape FH.
Talking about new FH saw Martime new Volvo the other day and it looked… ■■■■■■■ nasty I would be ashamed to drive it

Blimey, you Scania fanatics dant half go over the top. I imagine you’d be ashamed to drive anything without a shiny V8 badge. Alright I don’t like the look of theVolvo but the Scania is looking very old hat these days compared to all these modern trucks.

I thought that when I first saw them, but I must say they’re growing on me big time. Especially the ones with a nice paint job.
MT Barnsley have one which I’ve passed a few times and it looks bloody awesome.

Iv Drove a FH16 700 but when back to the Scania 
, I like Dixon FH they have pulled it off well
Well I took our R620 for a spin the other day and it made me realise me much more I love the Volvo. So much more comfortable for me.
I just like the Scania more for some reason maybe because the shiney V8 badge

Class and style doesnt age.
Wait for the 2nd series of the new FH, that’s when we’ll see the real Volvo when they’ve ironed out all the teething probs !

I never loved her…
I think Scania still look alright with the new shape grille & love the new side skirts.
They just need to update the gizmos a bit like Volvo I-cool, Volvo active steering, MAN EDC, Merc Actros solo star cab option for example, not that the Jerry’s offer it as an option on right hand drive models apparently.
