How can you dirty this with muddy hooves and horse poo! These top notch horse boxes seem to be fitted out like luxary yachts. Probably one of the best second hand boxes you’ll find made by one of if not the best manufacturer, Oakley. For a cool £239,000 + VAT you could own this 2007 Volvo FH, 400hp, comes with all the mod cons and probably a good swap for your house!! To try and find some thing more in your budget go to www.oakleyhorseboxes.com or click here for the full details of this one.
After endless years of the M.O.D. trying all types of safety and preventitive equipment on all types of vehicles, it seems they have settled on fitting heavy duty mesh around their vehicles, in the hope it’ll save the crew’s from explosions and other flying objects!! Good luck to who ever tested it out. “You sit in the cab and we’ll launch everything towards you and hopefully the steel mesh will do its job!”
While checking a route on the Google, I thought i’d just see what the Google Street View was at the Girton Interchange on the A14 at Cambridge. I stumbled across Will Pringles old SC Transport T-cab. Amazing what can be found on the Street View!!
I overtook this little thing on my way home yesterday. Very plain but very smart. The driver probably has the best job in the world, delivering Dutch chicks all over europe….. Just imagine!

This little beauty has been created by our very own Mr Rowlands. Although he says it needs tidying up a little, it still looks good as a first attempt. Apparently you can download the truck model from the internet, then you can customise it yourself. This one being based on the white livery of V8 HCW, Chris’s brothers truck. Have you designed your own truck on the compooter, why not send it to me so i can put it on here for all to see. Email me at ben@truckblog.co.uk
It is amazing what is on Google Street View. I was reliving my trip to Assen and back and stumbled upon this nice little scene. One of Heros own, a VSB 143 and what looks like a Fleurs V.D. Eijkel tractor unit n the door. Correct me if i’m wrong! ben@truckblog.co.uk
