    420's were an excellent little truck, as good to pull as the 480 without chipping, trouble free too

    The 97 400 had some teething problems, they were new at the time but the rest were trouble free, no real problems just usual service parts

    Right with you on that one....I've seen very few XF95s make the million kms....They mostly have to be stripped for one reason or another between 600,000 & 800,000kms in Irish conditions. I just don't understand why people keep buying them.
