daf s are well to be honest cheap and cheerful, ive got an XF105 spacecab at work 410 horses which are more like asthmatic donkeys to be honest. and it spends more time in the workshop than on the road normally
although it does go rather well solo and can get a decent bit of drifting in the wet as i found out the other week coming back down the A5 on the roundabout by hinckley luckily i was running solo otherwise it could have been a bit emabrrassing
