Sometimes it happens you do get lucky in this life, and the broad grin from owner-driver Rob Mackie (centre) from Richmond, North Yorkshire, proves it. He has just won an esti° in a nationwide competition organised by Scania. Rob is pictured here flanked by Jordans in the plural. The bespectacled bearded one handing over the keys of the Scania is Eddie Jordan, owner of the Jordan Grand Prix team. By a fantastic coincidence the scantily clad pouting one on Rob's left is also called Jordan and is the publicity model for the company. Rob won the truck when his name was entered into a free draw at one of the Used Truck Sales events that were staged around the country by Scania, in conjunction with its contributors, in May and June. CMwas happy to play a part in Rob's good fortune as our very own Brian Weatherley, editor of this esteemed organ, pulled the winning entry out of a hat. With this win Mackie International has doubled its fleet; it currently runs a late 1980s Scania R142 six-wheel tractive unit, and the owner is now left with the happy problem of how best to use his new asset.
