Manufacturer description

This introduction to our modern truck series comprises the SSC cab option in our Mercedes Actros tooling. It is presented in the colourful livery of John Mitchell of Grangemouth in Central Scotland, a family business started in 1956 by John and whose operation centres on haulage and warehousing. The company, which has won several trucking awards over the years, is now managed by son Iain and 2016 has seen the company achieving another accolade by winning the Scottish Hauler of the Year Award.

Our 1:76 scale replica of the Mitchell's SSC D-TEC Combi Trailer/Container is registered SH63 EPL and carries the SAMSKIP logo in white on blue along the sides of the curtainside container. A detail worthy of note on the trailer back is the inclusion of the D-TEC and CombiTrailer lettering running above the registration plate and along the bumper.

This latest release will bring a smile to the faces of our many Scottish truck enthusiasts, no doubt!
