Lives just outside Totton and is visible on Google maps if you know where to look.

I wonder what it tares in at?
Useless as a working vehicle here: look how long the chassis is - you couldnt tow a worthwhile trailer.
Yes pointless for UK regs. I bet its not far off 12 tonnes as it stands.

Bought 2 mid roof versions in 2013 , intended to run the for 5 yrs/million kms . The build quality was dreadful almost to agricultural levels and after repeated and continuous DEF(Adblue) issues they were sold within 3 yrs . Now using long nose Volvos which have always been a favorite of mine but let down by the woeful dealership support . Happy days rolleyes
Any pics of the Volvos?

Sorry no , they're on a dedicated contract which has a social media clause in it . They're mid roof VNs in White , moose bars , alloys , stainless tanks and stacks , fairly average stuff here .
