There's a pie up for grabs for the first person to correctly identify this truck

I've just returned from the Elmia truck show in Sweden, where I spotted this rather unusual truck. Of course I took plenty of photos from the front, but thought I'd see if anyone could correctly identify it from this angle first. And for a bonus pie, what year do you reckon it was made? Good luck!

Hmmmmm, it does rather look like a Motor Panels cab, with the centre window and the two corner ones. Perhaps the glazed one on the right suggests a LHD lorry?

Turbo piping etc..... hmmmm.... an FTF, perhaps?

Chris Gardner:

Ok, another stab at it...... how about an SP-cabbed ERF, with the high roof sleeper? But you did say it was rather unusual though.....

John Henderson:

Not sure what this is, but I'll tell you what it reminds me of at a quick glance. The old 1970's S&D bucket lorries with the 'Globetrotter' type crew cab.

I'll dig an S&D photo out later and send it on, or perhaps The Brochure King has the full spec pamphlet on them and their 'Pakamatic' tipping refuse bodies.

Richard Stanier:

I indeed do have the brochure on the old S&D bin waggons John, but this motor isn't in it!!

This truck is a Saurer D330. Built in 1980.
