Lorry Headlights

[ivor4781]

why are there so many headlights on foreign lorries , i know there might be some desolate roads in parts but i saw one on tv news yesterday with a total of 18 not counting parking lights,seems a bit OTT

It makes up for their other (ahem) shortcomings. ivor.

HGV version of the E Type Jag. :-)

[retrocop]

They were once Mods. Old habits and all that. :-) Might even see some tiger tails.

Some Landrovers have loads of lights round here. Drove round a bend coming home one night and was completely dazzled, I lost count at eight, totally unnecessary.

RETRO i had a tiger tail hanging from my rear engine cover lol (car was an NSU PRINZ 4)

They are trying to follow the USA Trucks Ivor, I'm afraid they will never be in that category, you have the likes of the Mac, Kenworth, Trucks, that's what you call a HGV.

What was that film where a man was 'stalked' by a truck? It was set in America and the car driver was blond and Germanic looking?

Duel, Tilly

[TWR]

Hi Tilly, I think it was called vanishing Point, It was Denis Weaver as the car driver, he was followed by a tanker.

[Tilly2]

Thank you, Sibs! What was the actor's name?

[Tilly2]

Thanks TWR, but I think it was Duel, I was thinking of. A very creepy film.

Dennis Weaver

[Tilly2]

I'm getting mixed up with the film, 'The Hitcher'. That was the Germanic looking man.

[Tilly2]

Yes, Sibs. Dennis Weaver doesn't look German, does he?

[Davemano]

No, he certainly doesn't Mr Dillon

[Bathsheba]

Ooh yes!! Duel is a fab film....not seen it for ages.....;)

No way, retro. I used to have more lights and mirrors than them on my Lambretta SX 200.

[Tilly2]

Rutger Hauer! That's him. That's the man.

Rutger Hauer, Yilly.

[TWR]

Yes, It was Duel, It's becoming like that on the M25.
