With no fewer than four new models on display for the first time, plus the UK debut of Scania's new Euro 5 engine range and the widest ever range of products and services available under the banner Scania Total Transport Solutions, this year's Commercial Vehicle Show marked Scania's largest ever show of new vehicles and associated initiatives at a British transport industry event.

The flagship 620 horsepower V8 Griffin is capable of pulling crowds as well as loads – as it ably demonstrated throughout the three days of the show.

Ghosts in the machine? Actually it's our photographer's long exposure that gives these passers-by their supernatural appearance.

'Be there or be square' seemed to be the message as the crowds duly oblige by making our stand one of the most visited at the event.

Anyone for canapés? With top class catering and a first rate ambience, the Scania Lounge was a popular place.

All OnBoard please: With live demonstrations taking place every day, the Scania OnBoard display area (beneath the Scania sign) set out to show just how simple Scania's fleet management system is to use.

A powerful display: A total of three Scania engines were displayed at this year's show; two Euro 5 models – one a 9-litre the other a 13-litre – and a range-topping V8.
