Default Try building this!

I would love to see someone have a go at this, but it would be very bloody tough. The new Renault Radiance has a very futuristic, fuel efficient design. This would be a major challenge to build.

I don't think that you guys in the US or Oz have Renault cars or trucks so for those not familiar with them, they are a French manufacturer.

Scania's answer, the new R800 and much nicer in my opinion:

Both look nice. For some reason that R800 looks like it belongs in Transformers!

That is pretty sweet. Heck, the whole cab front looks like Optimus Prime's head. Where's the rest of him? I really don't like European trucks, in general, but the latest Scanias are sweet.

Yeah you guys are right, very transformer look to it. The R1000 probably even more so!

I came across this tonight, looks really cool and would probably be a bit easier to build for one of the good cab builders on here. I reckon the Scania R470 or R620 cab would be the ideal start point.
