This turned up over the road from me the other day, long time since I have seen a Seddon Atkinson in use.
Very clean truck for a dirty job gully sucking.

Wow that was a find and a half; how sad that it's just another name that will soon disappear into oblivion as the last of these trucks finally come to the end of their working life.

That's a good question Pete and I must say I have no idea as I thought that the old factory had closed around 2002?

SA's were manufactured in Oldham until 2004, so this example must have been one of the last ones to be built there. Production was moved to Spain in 2005 as SA were already part of the IVECO Group.
