It's that time again. It's time for some heavy haulage and this particular truck

from WSI Models is a Volvo FM with a Nooteboom 5 axle trailer. It is a

limited edition model, and it's in the colours of the Dutch company Van der

Vlist. There are no surprises in the packaging. It's the standard WSI box design and

I've now opened so many boxes like this I can almost do it well. In the box we've

got the Volvo tractor and the Nooteboom trailer, and there were a couple of bags

of parts, and sneaking onto the scene is a manual. There's one irritating bit of

packaging to remove and that's cling film that is keeping a pin in on the landing legs, but

it would be easier for everyone if the pins and legs were just supplied in a

separate bag. Included with this model is a nice Nooteboom brochure, and it's full

of good information about the real trailer, and also about the model trailer.

Assembly of the model is very straightforward and firstly we will join up

the tractor and the trailer. You need to engage the pin correctly in the fifth

wheel and when you've done that clunk click does the trick.

Another thing to add are some marker boards under the gooseneck.

The Volvo has a very

detailed chassis and the gearbox is clearly visible as are the other

components. It's high-quality modelling and it is good to see different tread

patterns on the tyres. WSI always does a great job of these

limited editions and this one is no exception. In fact it's a 'convoi exceptionnel'

There are many nice details including

the headlights and there is a realistic number plate and nice chevrons

on the bumpers. What does look great is the Van der Vlist colour scheme and logos,

and the detailing extends to having a fleet number on the door. The steps are

textured and the wheels look good too. There's an equipment box behind the cab

and there are coiled lines too, and the detailing on the chrome exhaust box is

great. The small details such as coloured caps and tiny lights all add to an

authentic look and that extends to the back where there is Volvo on the mud flaps and

the lights have plastic lenses. Moving on to the trailer and there is more

high-quality modeling with most parts made in metal. The detail is enhanced by

coloured hoses running the length of the trailer and there are other things as

well such as tanks and wheel chocks. The detailing along the edges of the

gooseneck is first-rate and the tiny Nooteboom logos look very realistic.

There's other tiny graphics and a control console underneath. The high

quality intricate detailing runs along the edge of the rest of the trailer. The

wheels look good and there's another tiny Nooteboom logo at the back combined

with other small details. The loading ramps are locked in place by nice chains.

The detailing of the trailer deck is also first class. There are highlighted

bolt positions and replica timbers. There is more great detailing at the back of

the trailer.

We have the Volvo in a position of submission and the wheels turn freely

and if we do our usual check on the steering we see that it can achieve a

moderate angle. That's enough upside downness so let's check out the Volvo on the

Cranes Etc test track and it rolls nicely enough in a straight line and if

we set the steering we can try and encourage it to make a turn. The cab

tilts and it can pose in a tilted position and the engine detailing is

good with its coloured components and the Volvo name. There's one other feature

on the tractor and that is the fifth wheel which is adjustable for position.

And now we move on to the five axle trailer. As you can see the proportional

linked steering works really well the rear axles have suspension and the first

two axles can be adjusted for height so you can have them out of service if the

trailer is running empty.

The gooseneck has a very good range of movement so it's easy to get the trailer height

correct on the road. The trailer rolls well enough and the steering works well

too, and in a way the best part about it is that you

can pose a very good steering angle so that means you can set it up as an

interesting display. Another feature of this trailer is that it is extendable

and all you need is a bit of strength to open it up, but it is very good for those

over long loads. The other display options you have are fitting of deck

posts and if you want to extend the width of your deck you can pull out the

tiny support beams as long as you've got a fingernail and then as long as you

haven't been on the drink you could carefully place replica timbers across

the supports and enough of those are supplied to go down the length of the

trailer on both sides. Just make sure you don't sneeze while

you're doing it. At the back this trailer has loading

ramps and they are articulated and fold down nicely. OK, it is time to get

loaded up so let's put some roadworks equipment on and that will give us an

impressive looking display.

This is another in a long line of high quality

trucks from WSI Models. It has a very high level of detailing and most of the

functionality is top-notch. It looks particularly good with a load

on, and the Van der Vlist colours are very attractive.

Overall it is excellent.
