Are they white for a certain contract Andrew? I agree with you they do look a bit bland, but I think most do in white.

hi john,
to be honest,i don’t know.a haulier/customer told me recently that uk man dealers,still can’t get enough stock! which astonished me as i thought that there would be an abundance of vehicles waiting for buyers.i would guess?that if this is true?then the reason that some of the man’s are white,is because hauliers,who buy in fairly large batches and jr always have,can only have what is available.t.d. williams have a few brand new white man’s aswell,i saw a few on the m5 the other day.
regards andrew.

I know it’s cost saving that prevents these new vehicles from being painted in these troubled times, but I still think it’s sad to see, when throughout the years these companies have been so proud of their livery. Fingers crossed some good times will come back, but don’t hold your breath.

I think you maybe right there It’s down to cost, It’s a shame because it was easy to tell who’s lorry it was at a glance.

HI to all, Just looking through Aprils T&D, it lists the 2011 diary for a portion of the truck shows. Ashley Loverings Swansea show gets a mention, along with a photo of Andrews Peterbilt 359.
Those Scanias of Rowland Ward look the business, hopefully the show season will supply us with some more great pics.
