HISTORY
- This is an exceptional and very rare truck. It’s a Dutch ex-army vehicle, released from service and registered as a civilian vehicle on 22nd of July 2013. For 26 years it was used, serviced and dry stored by the military. As the mileage shows, it almost hasn’t been used. So 95% of the time it was dry stored and looked after. That shows!!! The overall condition is superb, the engine runs perfect and the 130 drives like a new one.
