Ever wondered why there aren't many Daf 66 CVTs in Holland?

......never tell a Dutchman on weed they'll go as quick backwards as they do forwards.

Funiest thing I've seen in a while :lol:

What do we learn from that? If you want to go backwards fast, don't do it in anything other than a Vario. How slow the "normal" cars were :shock:

I'm amazed Top Gear hasn't cottoned onto the idea yet, doing the same with MkIII 340s ...
343 GL Touring B14.1E CVT (155) 98000kms 1980 (sold)
343 L Junior B14.3E MT4 (155) 229000kms 1981 (scrapped)
343 DLS B19A MT4 (155) 167900kms 1982
360 GL Injection B200F MT5 (231) 348598kms 1988 (scrapped)
360 GLT B200F MT5 (302) 230000kms 1988
