BERTIE GOES ITALIAN

Well Iveco have been doing a roadshow recently round the UK to show off their new Hi-Way. So I thought I'd take Bertie for a look, not that he wanted to.

He wasn't best pleased at being used as a marketing gimmick, until he negotiated a £3k fee for his services

He actually liked the bed so much I had to drag him out of it

I've always thought the Iveco was a decent looking truck, let down by its awful build quality. On first impressions and with not much time it does seem much better put together. And the amount of space is incredible. Alas I didn't have time for a test drive.
Bertie seemed impressed but I think this may have had something to do with them stuffing his head for of cash*. It's a decent truck, I wouldn't give up my Volvo for one but I'd have it over many others.


*For the humourless this was a joke....however we did get a nice goodie bag

#MyTopThree; Vehicles. Number 1

I was young once! (To be fair I was at least 35 here!) So……my all time favourite truck was never really in doubt was it?! My FH16 750 I drove for Virginia is the single best vehicle I’ve ever driven but as a whole the Volvo FH is in my opinion one of the best vehicles ever made, and the final version with this cab, the V3, the ultimate version. The only sensible downside anyone can ever come up with is inside space with the sharply raked screen. It was a struggle at first moving from a Topline but when everything else was just better about the Volvo, not least an extra 310 horses under my right foot!.  When Virginia gave me the 750 I thought I’d better make the most of it, of having the most powerful truck on the road as Scania had only lost the title a year or two previously so as everyone said (including me) they’d soon bring out a 750 killer. Well, that took a while. Only now have they released the 770S, 9 years after this truck hit the road and 6 years after I stopped driving i...
