Here is our lovely truck , we got it at the end of 2004 from germany . We first saw these models in north africa in 2000 , at time we owned a mercedes 508d . In 2003 we travelled through france and spain in our 508d for a bit less than a year, It was when we were parked near Malaga that we met and made friends with german folk who owned these trucks , so as soon as we returned to uk in 2004 we saved like mad, found one we could afford and went for it. Even though i have had it nearly 7 years i still smile every day when i look at it.

Modifications yet to do?
the interior is still not complete , need to fit shower water heater and new fridge

How does it perform?
It drives very well even without power steering , although heavey to turn when parking but small price to pay .
