My late farther got a new 110 super day cab in 1971 he loved it ,ran that till 1978 when it was replaced with a 111 with the "delux" sleeper cab,that's when he started taking me away with him. This film brings back so many childhood memories of summer holidays .thanks for posting you've just made a 48 year old mechanic feel like a 8 year old lad who used to feel like the king of the road sat with his dad in a proper Scania.

Drove one in the 70s, the start of Scania revolution, came off a TK Bedford, the rest is history, Europe Middle east UK, a real work horse, 65 no problem, they were pullers for the engine size.

Bonjour ,Je faisait une ligne France - Pologne dans les années 1970 avec un Scania 110 Super avec cabine avancée , un bon camion avec une cabine spacieuse et confortable un peut contrairement aux Volvo F88 , F89 tape culs et toute petite cabine mais également un très bon camion et moins fragile que le Scania a mon avis . Scania bravo pour la cabine , Volvo bravo pour la fiabilité a l ' époque .

B & W Motors Hyde supplied at least the first four 80's units to go into service with a foam company in Derbyshire replacing the Ford D Series units that were in service there.
