Keywords : Truck, Robocop, Judge Dredd

Rosenbobm is another Coventry student with experience of working with Mercedes' car studios at Sindeifingen. And it shows ii the solidity and detail of his design. And the colour, of course. But a great deal of attention has gone into the aerodynanics of the truck, with a sliding fifth wheel and massive air deflectors built into the plastic-paneled cab. The engine is sited low in an aluminium spaceframe—a layout favoured by quite a few students—which would permit a flat cab floor, but its rearward mounting precludes a three-axle variant.

Our judges were not sure about the aggressive-looking cab: "Robocop," said me; "Judge Dredd," said another, Rosenbohm freely admits that he took his inspiration from a welding mask. His interior design was extremely well detailed and plausible, which should be no surprise: he comes from Lemgo, Isringhausen's home town.
