ERF European MW7
Posted: Tue Aug 22, 2017 11:10 am
Hello, Just wondered if anyone recognised this blue ERF truck ? I am looking for photos of these ERF's and have probably all the ones on the
net and trucknet etc. But if anyone has any in there collections would love to see them. They were very rare and ERF records indicate that
only 91 were built. I am helping a friend who is writing a book about them. They were built for the European market and were therefore LHD.
I think this pic may have been taken at Dow-mac concrete Tallington.
This one Pountains heavy haulage operated although it started life with a MW5 cab it was involved in a accident and was recabbed
with a MW7 cab which makes it not a genuine MW7 but a very impressive looking truck. Its the only one that was RHD as they were
all LHD. Whilst in Pountains ownership it was also painted a light grey colour.
Beresford also operated one and also had a owner driver operate one in Beresford's colours called Albert Dale.

Shamara heavy haulage from Southampton operated this one.
After Shamara had finished with it ,Raynor Plant from Alfreton,Derbyshire operated it.
Thomas Greer & Sons from Holytown,Scotland operated this one.
THis ERF demonstrator was used in Truck magazine euro test in 1975. Reg KDM 460N however i dont know who finally bought it and
operated it.
Another ERF demonstrator reg JLG 35N we believe was sold to someone in Kuwait but someone may have some pics of it before it was sold.
Will add to some more pics but if anyone has any information or photos please pop them on. Thankyou.
