ConTrans of Kolding aquired 5 new identical MAN trucks in august 2013: AA72991 (fleet number 135), AA72992 (fleet number 136), AA72993 (fleet number 137), AA72995 (fleet number 138) and AA72999 (fleet number 139) - I never managed to "catch" AA72992, but I'm uploading photos of the other 4.

 

Going up the steep hill leading sw out of Aarhus past Viby and Stautrup. Underpowered and/or heavily loaded trucks often struggle here.

 

Tip: to locate trucks of particular interest to you, check my collections page, "truck collection" (www.flickr.com/photos/lavulv/collections/72157684190396672/ ) - here you will find all trucks organized in albums, by haulier (with zip-codes), year, brand and country.

 

Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.
