Company I worked for in the early 80's had 6 of these in short wheelbase 25 tonne tractors, loved the sound but wouldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. I drove a 2032 Leyland T45 with a 365 Cummins.. Loved that truck, used to do UK to Italy and back. Never gave me any trouble at all. even over the Blanc.

Cummins engines are known to be quieter than Mercedes Benz engines but more powerful. You have definitely made the right choice as Cummins engines last longer and won't get spoilt easily.

Great truck, must be quite rare to have a tm in Denmark, in such good condition, I hope to have my detroit tm 4x4 up and running this year.

Yeah, great but I would think it would need the 8V71 plus Turbo inter cooling especially with that Skip full. She would be good for about 400Brake. Cheers.

A powerful truck with a powerful diesel engine! This Bedford 12-wheeled truck is fitted with a Detroit tm2600 v6 2 stroke engine. In the 1980s when I was a small kid, not more than 20- 30 Bedford trucks are seen everywhere in my country-Singapore. At that time, Bedford trucks are not popular because they are slow in speed and the engines fitted are not powerful. So Singapore decided not to import any truck of this brand.

It may be the kind of exhaust but... I initially thought it had a 6L71... then recognized the V sound at high revs ;)
