Exactly what I thought, must all be reference just to the original die hard for me to like it mind, the rest are rubbish

Thought so! Nice one. I got a bit muddled up it seems as I've just looked through my archive and it would appear I got a shot of your motor convoying down to Peterboro' back in May! smile -



Great looking wagon for its years that I must say and the others from what I have seen are at a similar standard too. Credit to ya, always good to see a fleet with pride thumbup

Think the Blue Stream is probably my fave new tractor at the minute. They do indeed look the business! Definitely not a truck that needs too much bling to enhance its appearance for sure. Did see David G Davies' new 730 Blue last week and that's on the other end of the scale entirely!...
Same story with the Golden Griffin too IMO. (No.8 lives not too far away from me... smile )

Ooh, look forward to seeing what he has planned!...
Sorry, this took a bit longer than planned due to it taking a while to finish and a while for me to take a photo and get it on here....

This is how you enhance a Scania R730 BlueStream....



Not the best photos granted, but you get the idea.

I love the Blue Stream, something as simple as the right colour co-ordination makes it top notch

That looks superb! Love the matching combi trailer, looks like he's done a great job.

Really are a stunning looking motor the Bluestream. Those Swempas lads sure know what they're doing! Really don't need to add much at all to one of these to make it stand out from the crowd.

Mr Reeds old 56 plate Longline is now operated by a chap based locally to me. Has had a few new cosmetic bits and bobs, and a matching trailer as well, before it went back on the road but it still looks largely the same, IE the business! biggrin

Had this pass me yesterday. Bought by a local operator a year or so back from Mr Moody in Grimsby and has been gradually done up with the murals, lights and various other bits ever since. First time i'd seen it up close and its certainly an eye catcher! -

+1
I've always thought the Scania is one of the best looking trucks, but certainly wouldn't pick 1 for tramping or Euro work.
