I much prefer this colour scheme to the plain white on my 85. The next lot to come are all in Tyneside Express colours. Regards Kev.

Red and white are swear words for Darren :smiley: :smiley: I like that Volvo but I think they should have kept that chequer plate for a catwalk rather than a grill :wink: :wink: . Looks like your going to miss a good day tomorrow Mark, the weather forecast is set fair for the Tyne Tees Run. Will your dad be there? Regards Kev.

i think when any lorry changes shape they get a bit of getting used to gazzad but they have a nice big cab and better vision than the older ones, i think they will grow on people eventualy , i wasnt sure about the look at first mate, them 750,s will be a good horse i would imagine. i had a look in one in norway the other week and was quite impressed with it.
