The truck, which features a 13-litre engine and is number seven out of the 50 Ailsa special edition trucks marketed, includes leather upholstery with gold stitching, I-Shift dual clutch, Volvo dynamic steering, I-Park Cool air conditioning and I-See predictive cruise control.

There is also a navigation system, microwave, television, fridge freezer, as well as a personal protection package, which comes with a security box, laminated door glass and alarm.

Driver at Richard King Haulage, Paul St John, said: “Volvo has put a tremendous amount of thought into the design and specification of the Ailsa Edition FH. The way that the technology is fully integrated and works together to help the driver focus on driving is very impressive.”
