They are all different as we change our buying habits every year. Over the last few years we've being Scania mad. Recently though we've diversified a little. Although the £105k volvo in the pic was only bought because of the free jacket that came with it lol
I've found this interesting brian. Could you PM me with fuller details or lighting regs.
Just seems odd we've never had a problem with it. Maybe we've just never beings in the wrong place wrong time situation. Oddly enough VOSA recently took the volvo in the photo's off us to check for defects...
Hmm Stobbarts. That company has far bigger problems than lights to deal with. They probally couldn't afford a light bar.
At the end of the day we need those lights to be fitted to do our work. So called clean hand merchants who's units live on the road and well lit loading docks don't hense...

I did piss the person on the phone off though. I didn't know if my engine was an early or late spec. So she asked what colour the cam covers were and i said purple lol
I went to have the carbs re-set up today. It turned out they all had different size jets in and it was running very flat after 6000rpm.
Some pics of ot being worked on by David Bogg. He builds grass track race engines and other things. In his workshop there is a V8 tr7 on bike throttle...
I think it runs too lean low down at the moment.
I've fixed the misfire though. Rewired the coil today since the old wiring looked like something out of the victrian times. She'll happily rev off the guage now!
