G'day all

As you know, I freely admit to the painless infection known as 'Magirus Deutz Madness'.
Today I received this picture which does not look like a photoshop job.
I accept it may be a fake, but would be interested in hearing anything about this apparent " Chinese Mercedes Axor Deutz "

Yes many NEW Volvos have Deutz engines.
They use Water Cooled versions, but although they are made by Deutz in Germany I believe they are marked as 'Volvo'.
Volvo bought 10% of the Deutz Engines company last year.
I would like to know if they are supplying engines for use in Macks as well ?

More info anybody ?
