Nice engine for in a mk1. :D

damn, why don't they sell these trucks here in Europe
The looks are good, and the enginering seems te be perfect too
So what is stopped these things to be shipped?

VW's partial ownership of Scania and MAN, although Phaeton told me that they would come on sale in eastern europe

The partial ownership in MAN was known to me, but that they also have stocks in Scania is new to me. I thught Scania was partial SAAB and because SAAB ainý VAG I didn't thought of it.
But it explains al lot.....

23% actually... quite big..

VWAG has Shares in following Truck Companies

29.9% in MAN AG & 20.3% share & 35.31% voting rights in Scania.

maniacmark - when your thinking of SAAB owning Scania your actually sort of correct.
AB Investor's are still the 2nd biggest shareholders in Scania they use to own a majority share in both companies ;)

Now everyone knows the whole story
It's proved again: this forum is educational!!!!

Very true :D

phaeton is a damn good addition to the forums as well.. nice info mate.

Thanks Jaap :thumbup:

Does anyone know of any links for full technical details of the NGD 370 engine? :cool:

Nope, sorry.. and we don't see Ben (Phaeton) around anymore either :(

VW is a big player with their trucks in south america allready, no suprise they will be entering the european markets with this truck, good price/km does it...:thumbup:
