I've just spent the last couple of days driving Astra articulated dump trucks in Italy - which as you can imagine was rather good fun. These Iveco-powered 40-tonners blast through the countryside with all the subtelty of a nuclear bomb! Anyway, more about that later.
What I want to know is the identity of these curious 4x4 trucks I spotted in the quarry. The badge on the front says 'Trekking'. Any ideas? Fiats maybe?

They're Bremachs Will. Italian company specialising in drilling rigs & off road vehicles.
There's currently one doing exploratory hole drilling by the side of the M25 near Rickmansworth - presumably taking samples for a proposed widening.
Hallo, I'm Stefano an Italian reader. I can help you about "trekking". The truck is a Bremach, mod. trekking and is iveco-powered. Bremach is a little company near Brescia in north Italy.
The web site is www.bremach.it.
Sorry for my bad english ....
Those trucks are old Bremach trucks from Italy.
Please send the pie to the Britisch Government. Maybe it helps to give us the loan we want!
Have fun,
Henk
