I am twenty years old and I work as assistant stores manager at a motor factor in Lincoln. I visited the Motor Show last month, where my main interest was commercial vehicles.
I was very impressed with Volvo, Scania, DAF, Fiat, MAN, Renault, Magirus Deutz, Mercedes, (ERF, Bedford, and Ford who could not be there, put on a brave face). Some British truck manufacturers know they are behind in the big truck market and are working very hard to get Britain back on the map.
We can design and build the best engines in the world but we seem to forget cab design and driver comfort. The worst manufacturers for this are Foden, Dodge, and Leyland, whose Boxer, Buffalo, Octopus, Bison and Marathon cabs look just like the Buffalo cab which was first used on the old AEC from the 60s.
