This is an awesome thread!

If you think these roads in Athens are bad, I really hope that you will never need to make a delivery in a Greek island.

Really, you cannot imagine.

Episode 2

Truck: Renault T 440 (6 years old)
Countries: Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Cehia, Germany, Belgium, Holland, UK.
Mileage: over 6000 km

An Europe tour including a non-european island named UK with people driving on the wrong side of the road :nono: :laugh3:
Sadly, all of my videos recorded were out of focus in big parts so i decided not to use them.

Route:

Some events:
1.Getting ready

ImageImage

2.Leaving Romania with a malfunctioning truck, fixed that day in Timisoara (few broken sensors and few hours of waiting)

3.Facing european traffic (and roadworks)

4. Getting from France to Dover and back from Harwich to Holland, ferry simulator :pleasantry:

ImageImage

ImageImage

5. Spending hours in the cabin and parking lots

ImageImage
ImageImage

6.Best anti-cabin-invasion ever :aggressive:

16 days later back at home :party:


Note about truck: overall reliable, due the Volvo engine, but very bad design of the Renault people leading to a bad dashboard and refrigerator design, an awful bed, + many small problems created by a bad project not by age.


French people should not produce vehicles in general, my opinion :diablo: :laugh2:
