Spotted this this morning outside of junction 29 m1 truckstop, lovely looking motor, must be some space in these
The picture must not do it justice as I think it looks grotesque!
Plenty of room though.
I seen one of these around Reading a few times, they do look huge from the outside so just have a massive amount of room inside.
I have seen this in crick railport in the past, very nice looking motor sounds the part to. Was going to ask the fellow if could have a look inside but was early doors and didn’t want to come across as a spotter like the Eddie clan
I would of asked for a look it it wernt 2am, must make a big difference in the tramping lifestyle having that much space and home comforts in a unit

Makes you laugh, spend tens, possibly hundreds of thousands on a motor, then park it on an industrial estate, rather than a secure truck stop - Saving about £10 and risking diesel / load security.
I will never understand this industry

Good point, it’s KER and they have 3 of these in England and 1 in Ireland so he must have some £££
All well & good but you can’t pull a 45 foot box legally, you be limited to 40 footers or 20’s which I suppose isn’t a massive problem but I’d still be thinking twice. Bet they need a football pitch to screw round an all.
Here is some pictures of the inside of the Scania longline .The one your talking about might be in it might not who knows
The absolute dogs for the long distance boys, its a great pity the Brit hauliers dont invest in this equipment, and the powers that be move away from the archaic regulations and allow them.

sorry, you are incorrect, you can legally pull a 45’ container with that truck
you could not, however, pull a 45’ tautliner legally, as you would be over length

Hiya i had 3 nights a week out in a Bedford KM for a 4 year span. i’d have put up with the pink interior no trouble

Kevwall, If you’re interested then I’d suggest you do a search on the photo forum for ‘longline’, as these three trucks have been discussed many times since they appeared on the road around 2006, and they have an ‘interesting’ history.
Those from Suffolk will know their origins!
