The LV cab made its first appearance at the 1962 Earls Court Commercial vehicle show, designed by Gerald Broadbent it was ground breaking and revolutionary for ERF He christened his new creation the Long Vue cab (LV) It combined a stylish appearance with luxury internal fittings and a number of new and innovative features like a full width front access panel for maintenance, concealed door hinges, a large one piece windscreen and vertical push button door handles so that ropes thrown over the load did not snag up on them.

 

The LV models, including LV tractor units, continued in production alongside the A Series until the announcement of the new B Series models in late 1974..
