Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Engine: 72-litre, 6-cyl 26hp/920Nm, 276hp/1,050Nm Transmission: ZF 6spd man, ZF 9spd man, Alllson 6spd auto (optional) Chassis: 4x2 GVW: 15t, 18t Wheelbase:3,500-6,800mm FLH240 6 December 2007 The latest Volvo FL, and its heavier duty brother the FE (see right), are the clearest signs yet of the tightening ties between the Swedes and their French cousins.

Look beyond the traditional Volvo diagonal grille bar and you may notice a certain familiarity about the new models-they mark the first major flow of technology to reach Sweden from its French stablemate.

Slightly over-simplified, the FL is a Volvo-badged version of the latest Renault Midlum from 12-18 tonnes GVW. All the Midl um's features, including the dashmounted gearshift and the Deutz-based engine range, are included. But one Volvo first is the CitiPro, an off-the-shelf 12-tonner with a standard box body and tail-lift. Volvo FL.
