Silver anniversary gifts? How about a pair of matching Oban Express Ategos says Biglorryblog!

What better way to celebrate your silver anniversary than by investing in a pair of silver trucks sporting the silver three-pointed star of Mercedes-Benz. Oban Express Parcel Service, which runs 20 Mercedes Sprinter panel and Luton-bodied vans, as well as 17 trucks, ranging from 7.5-tonners to 44-tonne tractor units did just that with its latest trucks. Although the fleet usually wears Oban's tradtional light and dark blue colours, the two 7.5-tonne Atego 816s from Govan dealer Western Commercial; are finished in metallic silver, the rear doors proudly recalling: "25 years' serving the community. Vehicles in our traditional blue livery are a common sight in these parts," says Walker Owens, "so our new silver trucks have created quite a stir locally." And why not says Biglorryblog, who is all in favour of anniversay waggons. Do BLB readers have their own favourite? If so send me a picture.
