So are the roads not realistic? Do you get the M6/M60 to Manchester? Can you drive around London?

The Volvo FH16 with the 750bhp engine is cheap to buy out of the box, has to be the most powerfull truck in the game, i can't see why i ever need to upgrade!

Where is a Volvo main dealer? I haven't found one yet and I've been all the way out east!

No desctructable things to crash into.

I'm out.

It's a great sim. Not sure if I will buy though. Time will tell.

I want to buy but I worry that it will come out on Steam eventually and then I won't be able to link it.

Origin, SCS and Gamers Gate seem to be the cheapest places selling the download for around £24 at the moment.

There don't seem to be any big name retailers online who have the box in stock at all at the moment, well, no one I trust anyway...

Logically, you should be heading North....

Must have been fined a total of 10k on that last run!

I spent the whole journey at about 70mph, down the wrong side of the motorway all the way across France

The game is number 2 in the UK PC charts:

Yeah but Scannia from Sweden is in Germany so if someone could just tell me where I can find Volvo I would be grateful.

Pretty sure there is one in London. Think there might be one in Stuttgart too? I'll check later if you have had no luck by then.
