New DAF & Volvo

Hullo friends, hope everyone’s week started as you hoped it would. If it didn’t, well, sorry, tomorrow is another day, everything looks worse when tired. Unless it really is a pile of shit!

So anyway, I’m waffling you may have seen me mention that I’ll be going to see some super interesting new trucks this week and these are two of them (3rd revealed soon, super interesting, but not Broughtons). The DAF XG+ in particular I’m really interested to see, I’ve not actually seen one in the flesh yet. The size of the cab is bonkers, I’m not entirely sure how they’ve managed it but manage it DAF have. Rarely considered in same league by many as Volvo or Scania but DAF have been kings of the big cab for 40 years. When the 95 SuperSpaceCab came out it dwarfed everything else on the market and this looks like it’ll take the battle right up to the Scandinavians front door (tho in U.K. the XF has been the best selling tractor unit for over 25 years).

So yes, watch this space, follow me on twitter/Instagram/Facebook for real time info and should have the videos about them up next week at some point. Be a video for each. 

Have a great evening all. Thank you for the continuing help.

#ThrowbackThursday; Where It All Began….

 #ThrowbackThursday - So if you’ve followed me for long you will already know I’ve had a rather ridiculous career working for every man and his dog, driving everything from vans to rigids to artics to drawbars to buses and coaches. I’m really proud of my bonkers career, it’s been absolutely amazing! But, my driving career didn’t start on the road, it started on a landfill, in a Moxy! For pretty my whole childhood Dad was a mechanic who drove on the side. I used to spend lots of time with him, going away in lorries or spending the weekend with him in the workshop. One job he had was for a local plant hire company and this was one of the best as back in those days when no one really cared much about H&S, I got to drive and play with machines in the yard. It got to point where I could lift engines and axles etc with pinpoint precision with the mini digger, helping Pops. Can’t dig a hole to save my life tho! One day one of the bosses saw me gently lifting the engine back into a Mox...
