Any Scania Truck experts?

[onesickpuppy]

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I don't think there is a truck forum?

I'm looking at buying a Scania 93M 210 truck (horsebox), on a 1991 H plate. Does anyone know either the details of the engine (displacement, torque, etc - I believe the 210 refers to the BHP) or know where I can find it? Google has let me down so far...

Cheers.

I did know a bit.
210 should be the power, the 93 is a series and might have something to do with the engine type, and the M is the chassis type/style.

I think that translates as 9 litre, 3 series, 210 bhp and M looks to be a rigid body

Thank you my friend! Hmmm, 9 litres - should sound good! Going to drive it tonight so we'll see how it looks and goes.

If it's a horsebox, then it'll drive at 25mph spewing black smoke, and wobbling all over the road so no-one can get past.

This answer is spot on - I sat my test in one years ago - good truck.

Drove it and bought it last night. Cracking truck - only done 160,000km (100,000 miles). Drives like new! Bodywork needs a wee bit of work around the bottom of the box but it was mightily cheap.

Always wanted a Scanny...

I chose my username as I'd been reading the forums for about two years before joining but your first post is after 105 months .
