A Bonney Merc
With New Zealand's restrictive axle weight limits and dimensional requirements, the 8-wheeled tractor unit has proliferated in recent years. Unlike some other offerings in the marketplace the Mercedes-Benz Actros doesn't look like a hastily conceived adaption whereby another steering axle has been bunged underneath !!
L.W.Bonney & Sons have a very mixed fleet, the majority of which are adorned with their attractive, traditional and well-executed livery. The treatment of the front grille on the Actros is most pleasing IMHO. All in all a most attractive modern lorry!
Im not so enamoured with the Actros's replacement, but it may yet grow on me.......but NEVER in plain white!
