I guess I'm cheating a bit. I had an Old Old T-reg D Series (Florry the lorry) that was mahoosive. 4 horse but aluminium body so good payload. 24ft body. It had 4 gears, which meant really only 2 gears to play with; and no power steering. It was slow and smelly and I loved it. Eventually the body was swapped onto an A Reg Cargo. Called Les. (As in LesCargo, geddit?). This did me for years - an amazing 5 gears, plus power steering. And now I've just put the same body onto a positively brand new (1998 ) Eurocargo. Although we shortened it and rather smartened it up a bit!
So it's still the same body BUT - Florry, the original D-series, is still being used as my Dad turned it into a cement lorry so it now has a second life. Although he is about to upgrade the cement lorry to the A-reg cargo. We're all about modernity here
