  • retirement date close to upload date, so may still return to service.

You don't buy an aging Scania Series 3 for practical reasons, but for passion and the pattern of many registrations is typical of such older, highly treasured trucks. Many want to get that dose of nostalgia, even if it's not very practical in modern times. So after a while, once the buzz wears off, it is sold on to a new owner with the same desires for nostalgia. This 1996 Scania fits the description very well and even participated in truck shows for owner Kenneth Buch, while also continuing to perform everyday tasks.

Going up the steep hill leading sw out of Aarhus past Viby and Stautrup. Underpowered and/or heavily loaded trucks often struggle here.

Tip: to locate trucks of particular interest to you, check my collections page, "truck collection" - here you will find all trucks organized in albums, by haulier (with zip-codes), year, brand and country.

Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.
