One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Sad to see another trident on fire :(

Seen on Birmingham updates:

I wonder how bad the damage is?  I'd certainly imagine this will go for repaint/refurb after repairs?

I thought it was only Mercs that had a burning desire...obviously I was wrong!

Is it a first for the dreadful ZF box variant?
