Premium Classixxs DAF 95XF…

Love it. Cracking looking model.

Boycott American beer, drink Spanish instead:

Say hello to The Griffin and The Moon Howler, both 1/43 models from Hachette.

Not as well-built as IXO / Premium Classixxs / Altaya / DeAgostini, but nicely liveried, and worth it if you can get them for a decent price.

The Griffin, Scania 143M, Hachette G-1470004, and The Moon Howler, Volvo FH16, Hachette G-1470005.

Another lovely Scania from IXO:

Altaya no. 26 1:43 scale Mercedes Benz SK 1948 with tipper trailer.

Interestingly, IXO released an almost identical model, TR058, with just a few differences and no trailer.

The venerable Mercedes Actros MP4 in the omnipresent MAZO livery, from Editorial Salvat, G1N0E096.

These things are everywhere on the islands, it would be a challenge to go a day without seeing a few of them.

A little bit of history on MAZO, here:

It’s in Spanish so copying and pasting into a translator may be required.

I think this is also a driver option on Euro Truck Simulator 2....although I haven't checked, as I prefer driving Volvo FHs...

From Vitesse, only 399 units made:

IXO Models TR223.22 2012 Iveco Stralis in Road Liner yellow, purchased from Coches de Metal, hauling the Mazo trailer from Editorial Salvat:

IXO Models TR228.22 1:43 scale 1983 Volvo F10 truck cab:

2021 MAN TGX from Editorial / Edicola Salvat, with a cracking looking tanktainer behind it:

I have a feeling that these are some of the only 1:43 tanktainers around, and since you get the truck, trailer AND tanktainer for €30, they seem better value than Dapol’s upcoming containers.

Have one or two of these in the post, and wanted to share here before the eBay gougers buy them all up.

Some Marklin (West Germany) diecast Porches from the 1970s.
