The March issue of T&D is on sale now! Packed to the brim with trucking goodness. Here’s a look at what’s inside…

The March issue of Truck & Driver is jam-packed with awesome trucks, driver stories, community news, show reviews, trucking nostalgia, legal advice and loads more.

LW Surphlis Scania

Kicking things off is our Editor’s Choice, which this issue is LW Surphlis’ stunning red Scania R580 – one of the very first next-gen models to hit the road.

Templeman MAN TGX

We’ve also got the full story on Templeman’s brand-new, heavily customised MAN TGX – which also happens to be MAN’s 150,000th truck to be sold in the UK. Rawr!

JW Grant

Independent builder’s merchant JW Grant runs a diverse range of trucks on some interesting work. We take a closer look at its impressive mixed fleet.

O'Connell Volvo FMX

Irish haulier O’Connell Quarries has chosen a Volvo FMX 540 10×4 for their aggregate and ready-mix business. We pay them a visit to learn why five axles is just perfect for its operation.

O'Regan Scania R770

While we were in Ireland, we also paid a visit to O’Regan Transport to have a gander at its big-power, low-height Scania R770 milk tanker. Holy cow!

Nick Oates Volvo FL10

Back in the UK, Nick Oates has been hard at work restoring a faithful old Volvo FL10 workhorse into a stunning classic, in tribute to his late wife and daughter.

Froggatt's Volvos

Froggatt’s Transport runs a superb fleet of Volvos and can boast a complete FH range, from V1 to V4! We head to Chesterfield to take a closer look.

Swedefest

The annual SwedeFest show draws in some of the very best Scanias and Volvos in the UK and we were there to pick over the best entries. See what caught our eye in our full show review!

Moss Cafe

Located on the M74 southbound near Carlisle, the Moss Transport Cafe was for a long time an easy stop-off for many. We take a trip down memory lane with a full pictorial of some of the most interesting and unusual trucks to pull into its truck park over the years.

And in Team T&D, Paul takes an unusual ferry route from Ireland to Europe to attend the enormous Truckstar event in Assen, while Andy has been rounded off his winter of early starts and hard graft with a charity tractor run in his Volvo FH540 Dual Clutch.

Of course, these are just the highlights – there’s loads more going on this issue too. Don’t miss it – the March issue is on sale now!
