Driver Goes Dutch
Despite what the cover strapline says, you and your misses don’t really have to share the very reasonable £2.85 it costs to lay you mitts on the latest issue of Britain’s boldest heavyweight mag. Personally, I would throw caution to the wind and buy one each. We’re getting sidetracked again. Spotted by T&D's weekend-roaming, luxury car-driving, new baby-toting Ed, Will Shiers at the recent Oswestry Truck Show, it's a case of nice truck, even nicer colour. The owner (Alan Lloyd) tells us he nearly went for a Scania over the Eindhoven offering, but thought the paint code from the R-series (featured in Scania's brochure) was too good to pass over. Works well with the timber theme too. It turned into a seriously cool shoot actually. Typical full on, all day long stuff. M&M’s yard was a joy to work in - set in the middle of a quiet Worcestershire woodland. Having a ready made location is 9/10ths of the potential problems sorted, we always reckon. Here’s one of images you won’t see in the mag (we should do more of this). Shot exclusively with the Phase One P45 it shows what an awesome piece of kit this really is - especially when you see the detail on the printed page. A big hand should go to Mark Cartwright, who unbelievably got to work at 4am that morning to polish the truck for us. It’s no minor miracle that he was still going strong when we packed up late in the afternoon. Thanks Mark!
