What is it that's big, black has a throbby V8 under the hood and 680 horses? Answer the new MAN TGX.680 and next week Biglorryblog is going to Germany to have at it. "Corr..luvverly grub!" as Alf Tupper used to say. (Alf who? Ah come on now, surely you remember him in 'Tough of the Track' in The Victor? No? OK suit yourself). Anyroadup I'm going to do a blog from the ride and drive event so keep tuned in next week and on Friday week I'm also going to try and post up some video footage, not just of the mighty 680--now officially the world's most powerful series production truck, but also the other models in the new TGX range which replaces the current TGA line-up and which make their debut, along with the V8, at the RAI Show in Amsterdam in October.
So don't go away, I'll have the V8 story right after the Bank Holiday break. 680hp? eat your heart out Volvo!
