Hello there. Some great trucks and trailers and people out in some wilderness. I love the trucks that did the middle East countries and Astran were one of the most popular company's. I also like the models, but they are so expensive. I have Volvo F88 it's a tekno model that has been painted up in Astran livery.
scania reg TDX400K which was owned by astrans ended up as a wreaker with a holmes 750 twin twin boom unit on it owned by Dave weeks of addington motors in addington kent
And all had to learn how to repair the lorry and trailers no air con till they put a air con unit on top of the roof read cola cowboys book they where legends
Trans con was way ahead of its time f12 still looks so cool, to think they did all that without the fridges and microwaves that we have today, real drivers having real adventures 🇬🇧

@@andrewking5274 I translate for you if you didnt have time during these 2 years lol. "Hi Andrew, the ford transcontinental had the fridge in option and also the cooking space with sink and gas, even I had the fridge under the bed on my 1982 Mercedes 1932 V10, in option"
Can't imagine driving those distances must have been freighting if you seriously brokedown I may be wrong but I think there still going as freight forwarders they were true international pioneers

Did Astran cease trading if so,when ? Love the early Scania 76 wagon and drag
Astran da dove veniva?insomma di che nazionalità era la società? Ha cessato l’attività? Grazie 🙏
