How about this for a 'Star' performer? Sir Rodney of the Simmonds in New Zealand has sent me this beautiful bonneted bruiser and the message: "Mr BLB, some pics from a week or so ago of a new Hooker Pacific 8x4 Western Star and quad bitumen tanker. Powered by Cat C15 through an auto Roadranger with all the safety equipment and accessories.It would be noticeable on the M1...?" I'll say and did you read the bit about the 'auto' Roadranger Vic...Prepare to put your left leg up mate! Now click through here for more from Rodders!

Yes, Brian, I did. You can put your left leg up with a manual Roadranger too, as I keep telling you! It's only those funny synchro boxes that need the clutch to be used all the time!
