Vinnie the Volvo was Our original 1989 Volvo B10M that We purchased in January 2021, We put him into service when We started the business in September 2022. Unfortunately in March 2024 at 35 years old and 1.7 Million km He suffered a mechanical failure. Being a turbo failure on the highway doing 100kph, It burnt 30+ litres of oil in under a minute and starved the engine of oil. Resulting in it needing a $40,000+ engine rebuild.
